The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) Canadian Police College (CPC) offers specialized training to police services and law enforcement agencies and organizations that support public safety, both in Canada and internationally. Its mission is to strengthen the safety and security of Canadians by providing high-quality police education and training. This empowers trusted partners to address the evolving needs of communities throughout their careers.
The CPC has provided open source intelligence training to law enforcement personnel, equipping them with critical skills to conduct investigations in the digital landscape. As technology and open source methods rapidly evolve, to ensure that its training offerings reflect the latest trends, tools and practices, the CPC has a requirement to supplement its internal training capability and capacity with additional training services provided by professionals knowledgeable in the use of open source intelligence to support policing and investigative activities. These professionals must also be experienced with learning design, learning content development, and instructional delivery of the topic of open source intelligence. These services will help ensure that CPC training in open source intelligence continuously reflects advancements in technology and practice, thereby enabling training participants to perform their duties more effectively in the field
