Security Cooperation Workforce (SCW) Supervisor Role Overview
SCW Supervisors are those who supervise DoD military and civilian personnel with substantive
Security Cooperation (SC) responsibilities as identified by their DoD Component.
The Certification Program will be integrated with career roadmaps, individual development plans, and
personnel policies and procedures. SCW positions and key SC positions will be identified in DoD manpower
systems of record, and position descriptions will be updated to reflect Certification Program requirements.
Your Responsibilites as a Security Cooperation (SC) Workforce Supervisor
Supervisors are responsible for identifying the SC workforce they supervise, determining and documenting
the appropriate area of concentration (AoC) and certification level, and working with their SC employees
to maintain an accurate continuous learning (CL) record.
To achieve these responsibilities, supervisors should know their Component Certification Authorities (CCA),
their Security Cooperation Workforce Development Database (SCWD-D) Administrator, and their DoD Component’s
SCW policies.
