Attend an event

As part of our mission, we are committed to providing opportunities for both our members and for professionals within the wider intelligence agency to come together and share ideas. Regional coordinators organise our face-to-face gatherings, and we also regularly host virtual events.

Additionally, we also have our national-level events, the Annual Conference, the AGM and the Annual Awards Night.
