Guidelines for Writing the Intelligence Briefings
I am aware that for many students writing intelligence style briefings is something you may not have encountered before, and so in order to help you maximize points for this assignment, please refer to the following guidelines.
Remember that briefings are tailored to a particular audience, and so must be written in a style that fits the need of the audience. For the purposes of this class, imagine that your audience is either the President of the United State, or a senior General. As such, briefings should be concise – no more than two pages (single spaced), and should include a mixture of historical background to a given situation as well as the most recent developments. You should assume that your audience has prior background to the situation and so the briefing should have some complexity to it. It is recommended that you include extra materials such as graphs and charts, and these do not count towards the two page limit.
