TSA conducts a Security Threat Assessment (STA) for individuals who reside outside the United States who have been nominated by the foreign partner for TSA-funded, sponsored, or administered security-related training.  These foreign partners are responsible for security measures at foreign transportation facilities and employ individuals to carry-out those security measures.
