This unit applies to those working as intelligence practitioners within the intelligence process in a policing environment.
The skills and knowledge described in this unit must be applied within the legislative, regulatory and policy environment in which they are carried out. Organisational policies and procedures must be consulted and adhered to, particularly those related to planning processes, approvals, and resource management.
