The Intelligence Community Inc. offers a unique Fellows and Associates Program to help students and professionals get introduced to new job opportunities.
The program benefits us by providing enhanced community engagement on issues relevant to national security and private sector security through subject matter expertise, improved community structure, outreach, liaison and education. Fellows gain valuable experience and contacts through analysis and voluntary service. Many of our Fellows have gone on to serve in impressive positions across government, the military and in the private sector.
