Intelligence Workshop: Level Two
Intelligence Workshop: Level Two
In this workshop, we will build an individual intelligence product based on the Intelligence Preparation of the Battlefield (IPB) format. This class will be spread over two consecutive Saturdays with an online meeting on the Wednesday between, to see where the group is at and to answer any questions. The goal of this workshop is to go through the entire intelligence process by creating a product based around a geographical area of your concern. We will be using open source information gathering to develop an intelligence product that will allow you to make decisions. An example of this would be if you are planning an upcoming family vacation. By utilizing the techniques taught in this workshop you will be able to take the mass amount of information available and turn it into intelligence allowing you to better plan your vacation.
It is recommended that you have attended the Introduction to Intelligence Workshop before attending this workshop.
