Training and Education
When it comes to driving change, nothing beats effective training, education, and follow-up. At Watermark, we craft top-notch training and education programs that make a real impact. Meet Dr. Jennifer Hesterman, our Vice President of Education and Training (as seen in the photo). With a wealth of experience in instructional design, development, training, and academic accreditation, Dr. Hesterman, a former US Air Force colonel, leads the charge in designing and instructing graduate-level security courses for the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency. She's also a trusted advisor to institutions like the Homeland Security Training Institute at the College of DuPage in Chicago and several Department of Homeland Security Centers of Excellence.
