Training
All entrants to the specialisation undertake common training at RAF College Cranwell for officers and RAF Halton for airmen. Following initial training entrants are posted to the Defence Intelligence and Security Centre (DISC) Chicksands, in Shefford, Bedfordshire.
Air Intelligence Wing delivers the Joint Air Intelligence Course (JAIC) to officers and the Operational Air Intelligence Course (OpAIC) for airmen. These courses prepare the individual for posting to intelligence roles. After completion of the first posting officers and airmen may choose to further specialise in Imagery, Signals Analysis or as a Human Intelligence operator. These specialist courses are delivered in the joint environment alongside intelligence specialists of the Royal Navy, British Army or Ministry of Defence civil servants.

—Susanna Moodie (1803–1885)
“When a man goes through six years’ training to be a doctor he will never be the same. He knows too much.”
—Enid Bagnold (1889–1981)
