Course Outline

Practicals

Overview

Hands-on practicals enable learners to apply the intelligence cycle and analytical techniques to realistic crime scenarios. Learners collect, collate, and analyse simulated intelligence data, produce reports, and brief a mock command team, reinforcing the theoretical concepts covered in the course.

Practical Activities

• Practical 1: Intelligence Cycle Simulation — Learners work in groups to simulate the intelligence cycle: given a crime scenario, they plan collection tasks, gather data from provided sources, collate and analyse the information, and produce a preliminary intelligence product. (3h)
• Practical 2: Link Analysis and Crime Mapping — Using software tools (e.g., i2 Analyst's Notebook or free alternatives), learners create link charts and crime maps from provided datasets to identify networks, patterns, and hotspots. (3h)
• Practical 3: Intelligence Briefing Exercise — Each group presents their intelligence findings to a mock command team (instructors and peers) in a simulated operational briefing, defending their analysis and recommendations. (2h)

Summatives

Each delegate is assessed continuously throughout the course via daily exercises, scored practical assignments, and a final summative test at the end.

Practical Assignments — 30%

Practical assignments are observed and scored against a rubric during the practical sessions. Each delegate's practical mark is averaged into a single 100% score and contributes 30% to the final total.

Daily Exercises — 20%

Every training day ends with a multiple-choice exercise scored out of 100%. The scores from each daily exercise are averaged across the duration of the course to produce a Daily Average mark, which contributes 20% to the final total.

Final Test — 50%

On the last day a final summative test is written. It is a multiple-choice paper with multiple-answer questions: each question may have more than one correct option, and a single wrong selection on a question marks the entire question wrong — no partial credit. The final test is scored out of 100% and contributes 50% to the overall mark.

Final Total

Component	Out of	Weight
Practical Assignments (rubric-scored)	100%	30%
Daily Average (multiple choice)	100%	20%
Final Test (multi-answer multiple choice)	100%	50%
Final Total	—	100%

All marks are recorded on the AATICD LMS and visible to each learner under their account.

Certificate

How it works

• Certificates are auto-generated on the AATICD LMS as soon as the marks pass the 50% threshold.
• Each certificate is a branded PDF with the delegate's name, the course title, the unit standard ID, NQF level, credits, and the date of issue.
• You can download or print your certificate from your LMS dashboard at any time after issue — there's no reissue fee and no expiry date.
• If you scored under 50% you can sit the final test again at the next scheduled session at no extra cost.
