Our programs make a difference because our unique learning methodologies combine intelligence techniques and practices, real-life and absorbing cases, and critical thinking methods to maximise participant learning. We immerse our participants and challenge them to think for themselves as a participant in their own learning – to be the best they can be.
All courses can be tailored, combined or modularised to suit individual and specific needs.
The course uses a blend of intelligence and other problem solving and structured analytic techniques, alongside real-life cases and problems, to help develop and apply critical thinking skills to generate ideas, explore new possibilities, solve problems and make better decisions.
Outlines Intelligence fundamental processes and the intelligence cycle and then introduces the generic structured analytic techniques used by most intelligence analysts. Includes engaging and practical exercises and a major desktop application where participants identify their information needs, apply analytic techniques and provide predictive briefings about an intelligence problem.
Explores the benefits of how structured analytic techniques might improve the quality of analysis and analytic products. Participants examine real-life and historically accurate law enforcement cases and practice a variety of structured analytical techniques. Assumes an existing knowledge of generic intelligence processes.
Extends on the earlier SATs workshop and provides participants with the opportunity to use more complex structure analytic techniques by examining real-life and historically accurate law enforcement cases and applying more complex techniques.
The workshop develops the practical skills to collect, evaluate and analyse publicly available information to support intelligence, investigations and decision-making. Through real-world case studies and immersive practical exercises, participants learn to ask the right intelligence questions, integrate OSINT into the intelligence process, and produce defensible intelligence assessments.
The course provides a definition of FININT, how it works within the intelligence eco-system, and delivers a FININT framework and approach to conduct financial intelligence analysis. Includes understanding financial information and data, connections, capabilities and motivations and how to draw inferences, alongside data manipulation techniques to deliver high quality FININT – with practical applications and group exercises to consolidate the concepts introduced.
Introduces participants to digital and virtual currencies, crypto currencies including Bitcoin and provides an explanation of blockchain. Includes insights into cybercrime, the Darkweb, Darknet Marketplaces, with engaging practical exercises and live demonstrations throughout.
