the department of defense intelligence oversight program
DESCRIPTION
Objectives Instructor Notes: Know where to find the information that guides intelligence oversight. The key directives provide the rules to the program and understanding the rules is an essential aspect for an effective oversight program. Understand how the oversight system fits together—which offices are involved at every level so you know where you fit into the system. Know how the reporting process works, what is reportable through the oversight system, and how it needs to be addressed. Know the general methodology used to conduct IO inspections. Think of the methodology described as an example; it can be tailored to the necessary requirements.TRANSCRIPT
