Short courses
Executive development
The National Security College’s intensive programs have been designed to provide a grounding across the spectrum of security issues while building enduring personal networks.
These programs are an immersive experience that improves participants’ ability to meet whole-of-government and whole-of-nation policy needs.
Professional development
The NSC gives practitioners access to world-leading national security experts drawn from key organisations involved with security policy-making and operations.
These courses are short and aim to provide participants with access to cutting edge research, skills and a more in-depth understanding of emerging national security challenges.
Bespoke and international programs
The NSC offers tailored or ‘bespoke’ courses for individual government departments and agencies, as well as private sector and foreign partners. These include programs designed to build capacity, dialogue or shared analytical problem-solving among multiple countries.
We make extensive use of syndicate groups, panel discussions, site visits, hypotheticals and scenarios to test and develop ideas.
