The Intelligence Analyst Training Program (IATP) is designed as an introductory course on law enforcement intelligence analysis. The program provides a firm foundation and baseline for criminal/law enforcement intelligence analysts. It is based around the core competencies of an analyst and the analytical standards for law enforcement intelligence analysts. The program culminates with a practical exercise devoted to critical thinking concepts and the three components of analysis and is intended to provide a thorough understanding of the intelligence cycle. The student is evaluated on the basic concepts of analysis, presentation skills and writing abilities. The final practical exercise is devoted to bringing together all teaching points, combining the fundamentals of analysis with a law enforcement problem area. This graded practical exercise culminates with the student’s submission of both a written report on the analytical product and presentation of their analysis.
