about the course:
Elicitation and recruitment are core capabilities and skills of intelligence, counterintelligence, security, and law enforcement professionals throughout the world of intelligence collection. They are interrelated defensive and offensive tactics that must be understood to successfully mount human collection operations or to protect against them.
This course explores elicitation tactics to provide students a framework from which they will more readily recognize elicitation when it occurs.
Counterelicitation tips round out the discussions on this “softer, more subtle,” but very effective intelligence collection tool so many have fallen prey to in the course of their social and professional activities.
The other key skill examined in this course is the recruitment process. Students learn to recognize that recruitment is relationship building.
When done correctly, targets of the recruitment operation remain unaware of the true intentions of the person developing the relationship with them. It is designed to feel and look like other types of relationships they’ve been involved in all their lives with family, friends, and professional contacts.
The process of spotting, assessing, developing, and recruiting an asset is explained in a step-by-step approach, richly illustrated with real world case examples.
