General Policy Guidance: At a minimum, DoD civilians, military members and on-site support contractors with access to CUI shall receive both initial and annual refresher training that reinforces the policies, principles, and procedures covered in CUI policy. Refresher training shall also address the threat and the techniques foreign intelligence activities use while attempting to obtain controlled unclassified DoD information and advise personnel of penalties for unauthorized disclosures. The importance of unclassified information, its potential sensitivity, and the requirement to have all information reviewed and approved for release prior to public disclosure or Web posting shall be reiterated. Refresher training shall also address relevant changes in CUI policy or procedures and issues or concerns identified during DoD Component oversight reviews. Checks: Check #1. Reviewers must check for an initial orientation on handling of CUI during new employee inprocessing Check #2.
