Issue Date: May 2024


This unit describes the skills required to plan intelligence support, manage information and the intelligence process, and provide assistance and support to policing responses.

This unit applies to intelligence practitioners working in a policing environment required to support strategic, tactical and operational contexts by providing reliable advice to the policing decision makers.

The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to, particularly those related to the management and classification of intelligence information, provision of support and review of intelligence responses.

Those undertaking this role would demonstrate high level analytical, problem solving, communication, planning, decision-making and information management skills. They may or may not have responsibility for directly supervising others, and would complete complex tasks independently in a broad range of contexts.

No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to unit at the time of publication.
