What must individuals NOT have to recertify on TIES/NCIC?

To recertify on TIES/NCIC, individuals must not have a felony conviction. This requirement is in place because individuals with felony convictions may pose a security risk or may not be eligible to access sensitive information that systems like TIES (Tennessee Information Enforcement System) and NCIC (National Crime Information Center) handle.

By contrast, the other requirements—proof of identity, continuing education credits, and employment verification—are essential for ensuring that individuals authorized to use these systems are properly vetted, knowledgeable about the latest protocols, and are indeed employed in a position that requires access to these systems. Proof of identity verifies that the person is who they claim to be, continuing education credits ensure that users are current on the legal, procedural, and technological changes related to criminal justice information, and employment verification confirms that the individual still holds a position that necessitates their access to the systems. Hence, these aspects are crucial for maintaining the integrity and security of sensitive information.
