In recent years there has been in steady increase in the number of jobs and military positions that require security clearances. The handling of classified documents continues to be an issue that shows up in headlines. Now more than ever, it is important for those in the military and involved in work related to the federal government to obtain and retain security clearances.

- Confidential
- Secret
