3 SCIP Fundamental LevelTM Certification Core Course: Ethics and Legalities for Intelligence Programs Price: $139 Course: Intelligence is shared on a daily basis as a matter of course where people interact. Most often, the sharing or transfer of information is both legal and customary of due course in conducting business. Rarely do employees deliberately violate organizational rules or international laws. As the interactions in business, however, become more global and more complex, it becomes more difficult to understand the guidelines of ethics and legalities while adhering to best practices in gathering intelligence. It is of utmost importance that an organization educates all of its employees, as well as its suppliers on the ethical collection, use and dissemination of such intelligence. It is highly recommended, as part of each Ethics and Legalities orientation and training program for an organization, that this training be incorporated. It is also recommend that refresher courses be offered on a yearly basis. The return on investment of such training is priceless when you consider that ensuring your employees do the right thing and act, at all times, in an ethical manner, preserves the reputation of your organization worldwide. This course will prepare your organization to compete on the world stage with utmost professionalism. You will be introduced to the necessary requirements needed to stay vigilant in protecting the ethical practices and legalities in gathering intelligence for internal programs. Although laws change over time and challenges mount due to global interaction, it is advisable to study and adhere to U.S. Law on the subject of Ethics and Legalities in terms of information sharing and use. The purpose of this online course is to generate that awareness. It is not intentioned to provide all of the 3
4 answers and not to provide Legal advice. We suggest that your Legal and Ethics Departments provide feedback into and supplement this training with your organizations specific guidelines. Basic ethical and legal rules that impact intelligence gathering How to act ethically Understanding the rules of engagement 10 ethical Rules Pricing legalities Handling proprietary information Gray areas of ethics and legalities Applicable laws and rights International laws and governance Ethics in research Mitigation strategies Economic Espionage Act (EEA) Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Four exercises on ethics 2. Intelligence Ethics Guidelines 3. International Governing Intelligence Core Course: What is Competitive Intelligence (CI) and What It Should Include Price: $229 Course: While market research often focuses on fulfilling specific information needs, Competitive Intelligence is an ongoing process of developing a holistic analysis of your organizational environment. Competitive Intelligence is not Competitor Intelligence. Competitive Intelligence can focus on a specific aspect of Competitor Intelligence, but it can also focus on other disciplines such as products, customers, employees, lost prospects, marketing, sales or environmental aspects. Competitive Intelligence provides organizations with a competitive advantage in any of those disciplines when a structured program is properly implemented, managed and maintained. Competitive Intelligence is not market research, nor is it espionage, nor is it simply doing internet searches. It is a completely legal and an ever increasingly essential element in allowing organizations to make more effective decisions on both strategic and tactical initiatives. Competitive Intelligence also provides vital insights and serves as an early warning of future events, which uncovers positive or negative impacts to your organization. One of the most important aspects of implementing any intelligence program is the ability to convert data and information into actionable intelligence. It is often said that information costs you money, while intelligence makes you money. In order for that to happen the data and information obtained has to be strategic, unbiased, measurable, actionable, and above all, repeatable. Without that foundation in-place, intelligence programs are much more susceptible to failure. 4
5 This online course will uncover and discuss all aspects an organization should understand and consider when it comes to what Competitive Intelligence is comprised of and all the different facets that it can be leveraged for. What is Competitive Intelligence (CI) Understanding the value of CI CI for competitors, products, customers, employees, lost prospects, marketing, sales or environmental aspects Organizational CI hierarchy examples Confusing CI acronyms defined Comparison to other research techniques Turning information and data into measurable and actionable intelligence Identifying the different sources of intelligence CI internal diagram and cycle Defining strategic, unbiased, measurable, actionable intelligence Different analytical tools defined SWOT Analysis defined and applied Gaining a competitive advantage Implementing a repeatable intelligence program The ethical constraints of CI Primary and secondary research gathering techniques Verifying and evaluating information Performing counter intelligence 2.

Key Indice Tracking Spreadsheet and Pillar Diagram 8. Organizational Hierarchy Examples 9. SWOT Analysis Diagrams and Examples Core Course: 5 Pillars Every Intelligence Program Needs Price: $249 Course: Implementing any intelligence program can be very tricky given the variables that each and every organization faces. Most intelligence programs fail because they don t fully think through the ramifications of not having guidelines in-place for how and what kind of intelligence to obtain. This course will go through, in detail, the five pillars that need to exist in any intelligence program to ensure success, and ensure others view as a credible program. Do you want strategic intelligence? Do you want measurable intelligence? Do you want actionable intelligence? Do you want a repeatable intelligence program? 5
6 This is a must take online course for validating and realigning existing intelligence programs in-place or providing you with the foundation to build a new intelligence program on top of. Information costs you money and intelligence makes you money. Easier said than done. This course will provide you or your organization with the insights and tools needed to obtain a best-in-class intelligence foundation and the ability to apply it to every internal intelligence project. This course will also provide insights on what aspects cause most intelligence programs to fail. Keys to creating a solid intelligence program foundation Creating Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that are strategic Ways to ensure a credible intelligence program is created and maintained Obtaining information that is unbiased Turning information into intelligence Creating intelligence that is measureable Creating intelligence that is actionable Establishing an intelligence program that is repeatable Real world examples discussed 2. Key Performance Indice Tracking Spreadsheet & Pillar Diagram 3. Making Key Performance Indices Measurable Document 4. Sample Plus/Minus Gap Score Grid Core Course: Facts From 200 Organizations on Their Intelligence Programs Price: $129 Course: A detailed analysis was done on 200 organizations to figure out what drove them to select certain intelligence programs and dive into their assumptions regarding those programs. Some of those assumptions turned out successful and some turned out disastrous. The organizations ranged from small to massive in size, and all of the data was based on organizations, and not industry specific, to allow us to present overall intelligence trends and assumptions across all industries. This course will uncover the ways organizations are leveraging intelligence programs to pull back the curtain on customer, employee, and competitor insights. This online course will also allow you a unique look at what the average organization looks for in an intelligence program and all the different nuances that go into them making their decisions and interpreting the intelligence they uncover. The course will show the trends an average organization faces when implementing intelligence programs and dispel typical myths and assumptions held by them about what a buyer really wants. Critical success factors for a successful intelligence program Misconceptions of organizations and their intelligence programs Top reasons organizations lose customers and prospects Top intelligence initiatives being considered 6

It is a technique that is used to determine options that provide the best approach in terms of benefits outweighing costs. A CBA is also defined as a systematic process for calculating and comparing benefits and costs of a project, new or enhanced solution offering, or competitor initiative. This online course will step you through how the costs and benefits of projects would be identified, calculated, and compared. Decisions are typically not made solely on the basis of CBA, but CBA is useful and sometimes required by law. Without a doubt, results from a CBA can be used to raise the level of debate surrounding a project. Understanding how and when to leverage a CBA and on what types of scenarios Review of other strategic analysis models Measuring benefits and costs Ensuring accuracy Leveraging it within your organization Defined steps to implement within your organization Benefits and limitations of utilizing a CBA analysis 2.

8 Core Course: Intelligence for Sales Enablement Price: $149 Course: In the past days of selling, quaint as they may seem today, the concept of sales enabling intelligence consisted of little more than attempting to call into the freshest list of leads. Luckily, times have changed, and in a remarkable fashion. Salespeople crave insight that will allow them to more efficiently and effectively attain business. Intelligence professionals crave the ability to derive meaningful implications and business outcomes from intelligence collected. It s only natural for the latter to feed these cravings by supporting salespeople with the right intelligence. Increasing sales should be the direct result of all intelligence and research programs. Regardless of how proficient your organization is when it comes to intelligence, every organization is capable of supporting sales enablement via intelligence. Sales enablement is a strategic, ongoing practice that arms all customer-facing employees with the ability to consistently have a valuable interaction with the right customer stakeholders at each stage of the buyer s lifecycle. Are your intelligence programs helping or hindering the business outcomes of your sales teams? Take this online course to learn about intelligence for sales enablement and understand how to align your intelligence and sales activities for cross-functional organizational success. We will uncover the intelligence necessary to outline a framework in which even non-sales professionals can engage in organizational-wide engagement. Direct correlation between intelligence and sales initiatives Why intelligence is critical for sales enablement Defining successful sales enablement in other organizational areas How your intelligence programs could be hindering sales instead of enabling sales Turn existing company data into true sales intelligence to drive sales enablement Defining the sales enablement framework Prioritizing different intelligence efforts Classifying intelligence requirements into sales enablement objectives Measuring success of program Applying best practices 2.

10 SCIP Advanced Level TM Certification Core Course: ROI Calculations for Implementing a Win Loss Program Price: $189 Course: Calculating the benefits of implementing a win/loss intelligence program can be very challenging because most organizations, and win/loss vendors, don t set it up properly.

14 Core Course: Leveraging Text Analytics and Sentiment Analysis Price: $189 Course: Text analytics and sentiment analysis are quickly becoming some of the most vital strategic initiatives that organizations are flocking to in order to gain a competitive advantage in today s world of big data and social media informational overload.

The results can be better customer alignment, new business opportunities, quicker time to market with new products, understanding competitor advancements and improving branding initiatives, just to name a few. Text analytics is becoming a core practice in today s organizations due to more and more functions becoming fully digitized and therefore being able to be analyzed. Sentiment analysis is a specialized application of content classification in which the text analytics software is configured to seek out particular terms and phrases that express opinions and evaluations and to categorize them by whether they indicate positive, negative, or neutral evaluations about an entity or event. Organizations cannot afford to ignore the promise of text analytics and sentiment analysis because the amount of information within their enterprise continues to grow at exponential rates. The best-in-class organizations were shown to be applying analytics to more aspects of their business and utilizing more sophisticated analyses than their peers. Automated tools are beginning to emerge as top priorities for organizations in handling this flood of information that in the past couldn t be tapped into. Organizations finally have a way to provide structure to unstructured information from primary and secondary sources to truly turn it into a succinct competitive advantage.
