The Future of Intelligence Analysis Volume I Final Report

The Future of Intelligence Analysis Volume I Final Report
Prepared by William J. Lahneman, Ph.D.

This 2006 study is for intelligence analysis US in the Intelligence Community, but some of the recommendations certainly relate to the development of intelligence analysis the law enforcement community.

"This study contains the findings and recommendations of the Future of Intelligence Analysis Project, an eighteen-month effort that explored what must be done to provide the US government with an effective intelligence analysis capability in the future. The year 2020 was the notional date of reference because it is near enough to make reasonably accurate forecasts possible but still far enough away to be influenced by policies enacted in the next few years. And the next few years are critical. Individuals entering the analytic workforce in the next several years will be the seasoned analysts of 2020. They will only be effective if they are properly educated recruited, trained, managed, organized – and retained, in one way or another – as assets of the U.S. intelligence community (IC)."
