Henley-Putnam Offers Courses that Equip Students with Skills Used by Fusion Intelligence Analysts

In response to the global war on terrorism and the pervasive threat to homeland security, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has worked with state and local governments and law enforcement agencies to create Intelligence Fusion Centers located around the country.

What is a Fusion Center?
Fusion Centers circumvent the traditional “stovepipe” approach to intelligence collection and dissemination where information used to be highly compartmentalized and rarely, if ever, shared with the law enforcement community. State and local Fusion Centers seek to create what is known as a “Common Operational Picture” so that officials at the local, state, and federal level can better understand and respond to threats across jurisdictions.

DHS intelligence analysts work alongside law enforcement intelligence analysts in the Intelligence Fusion Centers to facilitate more efficient sharing of information, which has spawned a new breed of intelligence professional known as the Fusion Intelligence Analyst. These analysts are responsible for providing support to decision makers by fusing information from local and federal law enforcement criminal databases with national-level intelligence from the Department of Homeland Security, for example, to create relevant intelligence products for leaders at all levels of government.

To become a successful Fusion Intelligence Analyst, you need to acquire a deep understanding of the issues facing local communities from a law enforcement perspective in addition to global threats to national security posed by transnational criminal networks and terrorist groups.

The challenge is clear: You need a solid education that will deliver you high-quality courses on subjects relevant to keeping you one step ahead of those that seek to disrupt and harm our way of life.
