Celebrating Excellence: Nominate a Star for the 2024 Security Technician of the Year Awards
In the heart of our communities and the backbone of our industry, security technicians work tirelessly to design, install, and maintain the critical technologies that keep us safe. Their dedication and expertise are the pillars on which the security industry stands, yet too often, their contributions remain behind the scenes. The Foundation for Advancing Security Talent (FAST) is on a mission to change that narrative with our second annual Security Technician of the Year Awards.
