Frequently Asked Questions
What training do I need?
DoD cyber-security training is required for PIEE registration.
For the JAM appointment process, if your training is not automatically populated, you will need to upload certificates for the mandatory courses. (See 3OP:010 – Uploading Training Certificates to PIEE/JAM.)
A/BOs are required to complete DAU CLG 001 biannually and DAU CLG 006 annually.
Who will sign my appointment letter?
Your Oversight Agency/Organization Program Coordinator (OA/OPC) or Agency/Organization Program Coordinator (A/OPC) must nominate and initiate the appointment. If they have delegating authority, they can also approve your appointment. If not, your appointment will be routed to the Delegating and Appointing Authority (DAA) for approval or to another user within the span of control with signatory authority.
The initiator of your appointment will identify your Delegating and Appointing Signatory (DAS). (It maybe the initiator.) If a DAA is required, PIEE will provide a list of DAAs from which the appointment initiator can select. It includes people in your organization with the PIEE DAA role or the delegated signatory authority.
The initiator may enter the address for an external DAA (i.e., not a PIEE user), and JAM will send that individual a tokenized to allow them to electronically review and sign your appointment.
