Summary
Criminal intelligence analysis is central to the disruption of organised criminal networks and the innovative tackling of complex crime problems. Such analysts are a crucial resource for any entity seeking to contribute to crime prevention and criminal justice, whether in law enforcement, charitable organisations, the financial sector, or beyond.
The PGCert Criminal Intelligence Analysis is a 9 month, part-time, distance learning programme for graduates and practitioners operating, or aspiring to operate, within the criminal intelligence space.
You will develop a systematic and critical understanding of core theories, research, and concepts relevant to Criminal Intelligence Analysis, alongside key practical skills relating to analytical software, critical thinking, and communication. Scenario and problem-based coursework will provide an innovative framework within which to unite the theoretical with the practical, for a thorough exploration of what it means to be a successful criminal intelligence analyst. You will receive training on industry-relevant software relating to case management and link analysis, incorporating these skills into assessments reflecting the undertakings and challenges of real world practitioners from the office to the courtroom.
The programme is well suited to those with an undergraduate degree in a related field, and/or to those already working in a criminal intelligence role across public, private, and third sectors wishing to develop their skills and theoretical understanding in a unique learning environment. It has been designed to be flexible, working around any existing core commitments of students both temporally and geographically. To participate successfully, students will need to engage their skills of planning both for their independent and any group study. That is, whilst students will have the flexibility to digest pre-recorded lectures and engage in self-study at times that suits them, they will need to ensure that they are able to maintain regular, weekly progression of their studies.
