Programme Objectives:

More on-time and on-target intelligence: The techniques for gathering more timely and valuable intelligence

Hawk ISM's Intelligence Source Process training programme develops your capability and proficiency in multi-source, multi-format resources for intelligence source research, including open source intelligence networks, commercial and government databases, academic resources and translation and research tools.

The module-based approach leans towards the researcher and collector of information from open sources (non-classified) and is designed with OSINT/F professionals, journalists, intelligence practitioners and Aerospace, Defence & Security researchers in mind.

The courses provide an in-depth focus on the tools and techniques needed for acquiring valuable information assets and effective information gathering as well as deployment techniques for data extraction, enrichment and manipulation.

Clients engage and learn about the Intelligence Source Process as a method for handling 'data deluge' and 'information overload' as well as advanced techniques for accessing hidden 'signals within the noise'.
