Whether youre looking to focus on developing a career in intelligence, or you already have some experience and wish to formalize this with an academic qualification, this three-year full-time course will develop your knowledge, understanding, and capabilities ready for progression in a variety of sectors. In the organizational context, there are many influencers and other issues that will drive the requirement for intelligence about the issues and threats which may have adverse or positive effects and impacts. The organization that values and manages intelligence carefully will be better prepared than that which does not look at potential issues and fails to develop information into a usable and valuable basis for action. The requirements for each organization will be different based upon the operational, social, and adversary context and will need to involve detailed analysis. In organizations that take an intelligence-led approach - corporates, businesses, law enforcement, military, and governments - it is argued that there is a higher level of awareness and by implication preparedness and resilience. Also, with the seemingly ever-increasing range of information and intelligence sources that organizations can draw upon, the importance of developed intelligence analysis capability becomes even more clear.
