False. Training is a rule or policy for people, so it is a managerial (administrative) control. Technical controls are things like firewalls and encryption.
An access control vestibule has two doors: the first must close and lock before the second opens. Only one person can pass at a time, so an attacker cannot slip in behind an employee — it defeats piggybacking by design.
Protect physical spaces with managerial controls (training, workstation and clean-desk policies) and physical controls (locks, fences, bollards, card readers, access control vestibules, disabled USB ports, a UPS). Prioritise by matching cost to risk severity.
