interactive classrooms. Class discussions involve every

24 hours a day. Other coursework includes case
studies, simulation exercises, and research papers.

from your fellow students as you will from course materials
and the faculty. Your fellow students are like-minded
professionals from a variety of backgrounds that include
intelligence analysts within the federal government to law
enforcement officers, business professionals, and military

of our students are referred by a trusted colleague.
