Computer Security Clearance

How to get computer access and email for new NRCS Employees and Non-NRCS Employees:

In order to get access to a NRCS computer and email, the employee/affiliate first must take the computer security training available at the links below. The paper test is for new employees needing computer access for the first time. The following year, the employee/affiliate will  take the training in AgLearn.

The employee/affiliate must return a security package to HR prior to receiving access. A list of the forms needed for the security package can be found under “Forms for Security Clearance”. The Area office can provide the finger print cards.

The Supervisor will need to fill out and sign the Request for User Access to ITS Resources (IRM3).

Affiliates will send the completed documents to Human Resources at the State Office, attention HRO.
