Janes provides a comprehensive series of in-person, and online self-paced open-source intelligence (OSINT) training courses. Analysts, researchers, and supervisors can learn OSINT tradecraft from our subject-matter experts and experienced instructors. Our tried and tested curriculum is progressive and practical.
On 1st August we published a substantial update to our Janes Tradecraft self-paced courses. Based on feedback from early adopters and collaboration with a wide group of specialist colleagues, and reflecting the ongoing evolution of OSINT techniques and processes, we streamlined the courses and enhanced them with a new structure.
Foundational courses:
The foundational Janes Tradecraft self-paced courses are designed to provide learners with the essential knowledge and understanding of key concepts, tools, and tradecraft in OSINT.
- OSINT primer β 100

Familiarisation courses:
The familiarisation Janes Tradecraft self-paced courses are designed to initiate learners into an introduction and broad understanding of specific, specialist areas within OSINT. The objective is that learners are able to be conversant with and conduct basic-level single-discipline open-source activity in support of qualified experts in these areas. These courses are standalone rather than progressive; they can be completed individually and in any order.
