This new program is designed specifically to equip newer national security practitioners from Commonwealth and state governments with the foundational knowledge and skills needed to navigate Australia’s complex national security landscape. This immersive course introduces participants to three key elements of Australia’s national security: policy challenges, governance arrangements and institutional structures. Through engaging presentations, examination of case studies, mentoring and interactive discussions, this course provides participants the opportunity to better understand evolving threats, decision making processes and the essential role national security agencies play in upholding Australia’s security and resilience.

The course will be held at Cliftons Freshwater L18, 2 Southbank Blvd, Southbank VIC 3006.
