This report addresses (1) actions TSA has taken to develop guidance and standards for flight and cabin crew member security training and to measure the effectiveness of the training, (2) how TSA ensures domestic air carriers comply with the training guidance and standards, and (3) efforts TSA has taken to develop and assess the effectiveness of its voluntary self-defense training program https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-781/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-781.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-781/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-781.pdf GAO-05-781 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-05-781 Other Written Product GAO-05-781; Aviation Security: Flight and Cabin Crew Member Security Training Strengthened, but Better Planning and Internal Controls Needed; Air transportation Aviation security Counterterrorism Employee training Flight crews Performance measures Standards Strategic planning Terrorism Volume 115 Page 611 115 Stat. 611 Volume 116 Page 2135 116 Stat. 2135 Volume 117 Page 2490 117 Stat. 2490 Public Law 107-71 Public Law 107-296 Public Law 108-176
