(b) Training not complete. An individual who has not completed the
training required by Section 1544.405 may be
deployed during the on-the-job portion
of training to perform security functions provided that the individual - 
(1) Is closely supervised; and
(2) Does not make independent judgments as to whether individuals or
property may enter a sterile area or
aircraft without further inspection.
(c) Failure of operational test. No aircraft operator may use an individual to
perform a screening function after that
individual has failed an operational
test related to that function, until that
individual has successfully completed
the remedial training specified in the
aircraft operator-s security program.
(d) Annual proficiency review. Each individual assigned screening duties shall
receive an annual evaluation. The aircraft operator must ensure that a
Ground Security Coordinator conducts
and documents an annual evaluation of
each individual who performs screening
functions. An individual who performs
screening functions may not continue
to perform such functions unless the
evaluation demonstrates that the individual - 
(1) Continues to meet all qualifications and standards required to perform a screening function;
(2) Has a satisfactory record of performance and attention to duty based
on the standards and requirements in
the aircraft operator-s security program; and
(3) Demonstrates the current knowledge and skills necessary to courteously, vigilantly, and effectively perform screening functions.
