Why Outsource CI, CT & Security Training?
Why would US Government agencies,
military services and private sector companies outsource their counterintelligence,
counterterrorism and security
training instead of having their own employees give the
training?
Yet when logically thought through, the
question really should be, why wouldn’t you want these
organizations to outsource their CI, CT & Security training?
Why would you want a young, new military
noncom to be tasked to give CI briefings to his unit? Why
would you want to have an experienced intelligence officer
rising in her career to teach a great CI or CT course, only to
have her move up to another job in a year? And most of all,
why would you want to task your valuable people and time
resources towards training and away from the War on Terror
mission?
Having the CI Centre provide
high-quality counterintelligence, counterterrorism and
security training has a number of
benefits to your organization:
1) Highly-experienced counterintelligence
subject matter experts. We are former government
intelligence officers who spent our careers in the CI
field–working, managing, investigating, analyzing CI and CT cases,
issues, plans, strategy and operations. Now retired from 25
to 30+ years in the government, we are ready to impart our
knowledge and experience to the younger generation. In-house
trainers often have about 7-12 years experience. Plus we
have a number of experts on the Middle East and radical
terrorism that provide you with important first-hand
experience and knowledge.
2) Consistent and
dedicated training. Our subject matter experts
provide consistent, high-quality training over many years
enabling more employees to have the same knowledge base. We
have had our careers and now we are dedicated to one
thing–training. In-house trainers may be available to
give briefings for only one or two years before they move
on to other jobs. Training becomes uneven, inconsistent and
soon non-sustaining over a long period of time. Even while
they are trainers, they may be called away by more pressing
job mission duties and not be able to teach. This won’t
happen with the CI Centre–it is our mission to always be
available to provide training to you at any time.
3) Saving money, people
and time resources in the government. It costs a great
deal of money and time for a team of in-house trainers to
develop and teach a CI, CT or Security training course. This includes their
salary and man-hours and takes them away from other vital
organization-specific missions. The CI
Centre can provide an organization with the best quality training without tasking the resources of the training office. We do all the work, all the preparation and
provide the training facility, and our own instructors do
all the teaching. The training office benefits from
providing top quality training to their employees.
4) Development and course
updating/enhancement costs covered by the CI Centre, not the
USG. As a follow-on to the above, the CI Centre always
develops, updates and enhances our CI courses on our own
time and money and we do not charge the government for this.
This is another way your organization saves money. Our
course contracts are firm-fixed price (not time &
material which result in cost overruns). We purposefully
develop and own our courses so we can keep them fresh,
relevant, and up-to-date for you. Because we are solely
focused on training, we have the time (which is rare in most
organizations) to do in-depth research and reading about CI topics.
5)
GSA Schedule. The CI Centre is on
the GSA Schedule, Contract GS-02F-0210R, ensuring the US
Government
has the best priced, most cost-effective training available,
right now. No waiting six months for courses to be
developed.
6) Experience matters. With the rapidly
changing workforce and large numbers of new hires, the
experience level in the US Government and Government
contractors, especially with
counterintelligence, is diminishing. These new, young
officers can take advantage of the vast experience and
knowledge of the experts of the CI
Centre–and get this vital knowledge at the very beginning of
their careers. Does your organization hire companies to
insert contractors to the government or are you a
company that does this? Make sure these inserts have
benefit of high-quality CI Centre training so they can
do their best job for the government.
7) Immediate CI training. Have an urgent
training requirement? With the CI Centre, our courses are
already there, ready to teach, ready to go wherever your
organization needs them. There is no start-up time or getting up-to-speed
on the subject. The CI Centre already has over 40 CI, CT and
Security courses ready to provide. We can also
quickly tailor the courses to meet the specific needs of an
agency.
8) Dynamic, interesting training.
The CI Centre wants to make its courses
highly informative as well as entertaining so employees
enjoy the experience and retain the information. We invest
in new technologies to ensure our presentations are
sophisticated, modern and rich in multimedia. This is
especially true with the younger generation who demand
highly interactive, graphic-intense visuals to aid in
learning.
9) Highly-rated
training. Your organization will
receive very positive feedback from their employees about CI
Centre training courses. We collect and closely monitor
student feedback. The CI Centre will always be sure our
training delivery is of the highest-quality so the customer
is always satisfied. You can demand a very high standard
from the CI Centre–and get it.
