This course introduces
analysts to the historical context of strategic analysis through broader
concepts of thinking and analyzing more strategic aspects. A key component of
modern analytical investigations is the ability to collect and analyze multiple
data sets and information sources to generate a holistic product. Introduction
to Strategic Intelligence Analysis (ISIA) expands on the basic principles of
strategic analysis explored in the Foundations of Intelligence Analysis Training
(FIAT) while building a framework for real-world application and broader occupational
contexts.
Key concepts covered in this course include:
• Understanding
the process
of strategic analysis
• Current trends
• Collecting, collating, and
analyzing multiple sources of data Note: Some of the
concepts covered in ISIA are also covered in NW3C’s four-day FIAT instruction;
therefore, some of the material in ISIA can be duplicative for prior FIAT
students. Students who
complete this course and pass the post-test are eligible for 1.0 point toward
the CECFE and 3CIA certifications.

The
hands-on practical exercises are intensive, critical to understanding the
material being taught, and required to successfully complete the class. If your
computer hardware does not meet the mandatory requirements listed below, your
experience in taking the class will be less than ideal and may also impact other
students while the instructors take time to troubleshoot hardware and software
problems.

• Operating system. Your computer must be running Microsoft windows 10 or later or macOS v10.12 or
later. Make sure your operating system is fully updated prior to class.
•
Smartphones and tablets are prohibited.

Mandatory
Hardware Requirements
• Hard-wired, high-speed
Internet connection. A wireless Internet connection may be sufficient,
however, a wired connection will improve latency and buffering, and will also
provide better connection speeds and stability overall.
• Microphone and speakers. This is an interactive, live training class and a microphone
is required to interact with the instructor(s), ask questions, give answers, and
provide insights to help enhance the overall class experience. We recommend a
headset, headphones, or earbuds to eliminate feedback and echo when using your
microphone.
