Our Services

Translating our expertise into training packages, we offer bespoke customised training workshops in growing your human capital skills in the areas of critical thinking, research, and analysis methods in support of business intelligence analysis and reporting. These thinking tools and skills are pragmatically applicable in root cause analysis for problem solving and in forensics investigations.

How are we different? We are unique in two ways.

At our core, we believe in Adult Learning for Adult Learners. As such, we apply androgogical (rather than pedagogical) principles and methods to guide the design and delivery of our training workshops. Second, we believe in Practical Application. As such, we design our training with the learner's operating context in mind.

Here is an outline for our most requested 3-day programme for arming your intelligence analyst with the necessary foundational knowledge to gain and apply the skills for critical thinking, research and analysis in preparing effective intelligence analysis and reports.
