The decision

What should this practitioner learn and demonstrate next?

The planner creates a six-week sequence by role. It combines physical security fundamentals, AI governance, evaluation, communication, and a portfolio artifact so learning can be reviewed through actual work.

Input

Current or target role family.

Output

A six-week development sequence and official-resource route.

Owner

The practitioner and manager agreeing on evidence of progress.

Competency model

Build across four connected capabilities.

Security operations

Threat, risk, systems, incidents, evidence, response, and continuity.

AI literacy

Use cases, data, model limits, evaluation, automation bias, and uncertainty.

Governance

Policy, privacy, accountability, testing, monitoring, change control, and stop conditions.

Translation

Requirements, business cases, executive communication, training, and cross-functional decisions.

Working tool

Generate the six-week plan

Select the role that best matches the work to be performed, not simply the current job title.

Evidence of capability

End the cycle with something reviewable.

Operator

A sanitized alarm-triage test with human decisions, errors, and stop conditions.

Manager

An AI use-case register with owners, data boundaries, controls, and pilot gates.

Integrator

An architecture and acceptance plan covering standards, failure, recovery, and evidence.

Consultant

A vendor-neutral requirements brief with assumptions, alternatives, and evaluation method.

New practitioner

A synthetic incident workflow, terminology map, and reflective after-action review.

Any role

A one-page explanation of where AI helps, where it stops, and who remains accountable.

Method and limits

A development scaffold, not a credential assessment.

The role plans are deterministic examples. They do not evaluate experience, certify competence, guarantee employment, or replace current requirements from ASIS, SIA, employers, regulators, or credential issuers.
