"The technology that we provided to the frontier troops of the
National Security Service (NSS) will step up their educational level
and efficiency," John Evans, U.S. ambassador to Armenia said during a
visit to NSS Frontier Education Center. The center was provided with
computer equipment and office furniture costing $25,000. Ambassador
Evans and Romik Harutunyan, NSS deputy head, signed a memorandum on
delivery of inventory.

Ambassador Evans walked around the center, which has been recently
renovated on USD 130,000 donation of the American government. An
NSS officer told reporters that more cases of faked documents
have been discovered recently thanks to the computer technology
introduced in the system. The Center provides 40 day training to NSS
employees who later work at Zvartnots airport, Bagratashen or other
checkpoints.
