As part of its continuing support to NATO’s HQ Allied Command Transformation, the JCBRN Defence COE hosted a Intelligence Analyst CBRN Course - Training Needs Analysis (TNA) Workshop from 24 – 26 October 2011 during which a TNA was conducted for a proposed NATO course aimed at raising CBRN awareness for trained Intelligence Analysts.

      The workshop was attended by 11 external delegates with 8 nationalities represented across 9 different headquarters. LTC Johan Van Houten from ACT’s JFT/JETE (training) organization led the way on developing an outline syllabus for a course which will be run in the future by the NATO School at Oberammagau. Further development of the course is now with the NATO School with COE continuing to offer full support. The pilot course will run in 2012.
