Training built for the shop floor — not the SOC.
Four hours, in person, taught by a 20-year USAF veteran. Built around the G.A.R.D.™ Framework and calibrated for the owners, operators, and floor personnel who actually handle CUI — not for cybersecurity professionals studying for a credential.
Three audiences. One workshop.
The training works because it's calibrated to the people who actually need it — not retrofitted from a credential prep course built for cybersecurity professionals.
Owners & Operators
Owners and senior leaders who carry False Claims Act exposure as Affirming Officials. They walk out understanding what the signature actually means — and how to protect themselves.
Engineering & Production
Engineers, machinists, quality leads, and shop foremen who handle controlled drawings every day. They learn how to spot CUI, how to handle it, and what behaviors create exposure.
Internal IT Lead
The internal lead — often a one-person IT shop — who will own the readiness work after the training ends. They leave with a real plan, not a credential study guide.
Built around the G.A.R.D.™ Framework.
The workshop content is structured around Globe-America's proprietary four-stage framework. Attendees leave with a working understanding of where their company sits at each stage and concrete next steps.
Four hours. Six tangible deliverables.
Live Workshop
Four hours covering CMMC Levels 1, 2, and 3 — including FCI vs. CUI, the 15 FAR 52.204-21 controls, and what a third-party C3PAO assessment requires.
Participant Workbook
Printed workbook for every attendee. Decision frameworks, the 15 controls, the 14 NIST control families, and a 30-day action plan.
Knowledge Check
Fifteen-question post-workshop quiz with answer key. Useful for grant reporting, training records, or confirming the material landed.
Branded Slide Deck
The full deck delivered electronically after the workshop, watermarked for internal reuse — refreshers, onboarding, leadership briefings.
Free G.A.R.D.™ Assessment
Every attendee receives access to the free G.A.R.D. Assessment to evaluate their organization across all four framework stages.
Office Hours
One 30-minute group office hours session two weeks after the workshop — open to all attendees as they begin applying what they learned.
Three ways to engage.
Pricing reflects the buyer, the format, and what's bundled. Volume discounts available for multi-cohort engagements. Custom branding and train-the-trainer rights priced separately.
For grant-funded workforce development programs (E2G, MEP, APEX). Includes SDVOSB subcontractor positioning for proposal scoring. Reportable deliverables built for grant administration.
For a single defense manufacturer wanting the workshop delivered to their own personnel on-site. Calibrated for small to mid-size DIB suppliers preparing for CMMC. Includes the branded slide deck, follow-up office hours, and free G.A.R.D.™ Assessment access for all attendees.
For prime contractors training their supplier base, industry associations training members, or organizations seeking train-the-trainer licensing. Pricing reflects audience size, branding, and licensing scope. Multi-cohort delivery and quarterly content update agreements available.
Taught by the person who built it.
No third-party instructor reading from a deck. Every delivery is led by Eddie White, founder of Globe-America Consulting and architect of the G.A.R.D.™ Framework. Twenty years in the United States Air Force in roles spanning cybersecurity, compliance, and program management. Now full-time helping small defense manufacturers reach defensible CMMC certification without the consulting bloat.
That continuity matters. The instructor who designed the curriculum is the instructor who delivers it, the instructor who answers the follow-up questions, and the instructor who can be retained for deeper readiness work if the engagement extends beyond the workshop. Most training programs sell the brand and ship a contractor. This one doesn't.
