Congratulations!!
Many retirees stay active in the fire community so we wanted to share the process to change from a "federal" user to an "affiliate." If you have an established account you can continue to use that, but we need to update your settings in our system and your yearly requirements will change.
You'll now follow the steps outlined on the Non-Federal User page. Note: Depending on the time of retirements and the FISSA requirements these steps can change slightly if your FISSA training is still valid.
Complete your online security training certificate.
Have a federal sponsor email [email protected] with your certificate attached. Your new email address and phone number should be included in this message. For additional information on the sponsorship request please visit our Sponsoring and Affiliate page.
Keep your account active and in compliance!
FireNet requires that you must update your password every 60 days. You will receive several reminders when you need to change your password.
FireNet accounts are limited. If our logs do not indicate a successful web sign-in/password change at www.office.com within 60 days, the account will be deleted. Once accounts (and associated files) are deleted, a new account will need to be requested and created if it meets the current criteria.
Please check your spam folders for any communications from FireNet.
Annual Affiliate Renwal
Affiliate (non-federal) users with a Named FireNet Account are required to renew their Information Security training and accept the FireNet Rules of Behavior (ROB) annually. Affiliates are asked to complete these tasks by a February deadline each year. You will receive communications from FireNet when the annual process opens.
