The U.S. Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) Intelligence directorate (G2) Foundry program offers several training courses for professionals in the Army Cyber enterprise and intelligence communities.
Foundry is a dynamic, quick reaction intelligence training program designed to enhance military intelligence readiness for commanders and senior intelligence officers. The program is enabled to develop training material in response to changing threat tactics, techniques and procedures, new or upgraded military intelligence technological capabilities and processes, modernization and Multi-Domain Operations. Foundry training is available at no cost to Department of the Army military and civilian intelligence personnel. Members of other services, contractor personnel and coalition partners can attend on a space-available basis.
ARCYBER G2 officials explained that they developed the training program to provide streamlined and comprehensive training material on the technical aspects of cyber-based knowledge. The courses extract the requisite technical elements of commercial and military courses and blend them with intelligence practices and tradecraft instrumental to wide-ranging cyber-related missions in support of U.S. Cyber Command priorities. The G2 team also provides outreach to the Military Intelligence Warrant Officer Advanced Course and National Guard exercise support. The program has been validated and approved through Department of the Army G2 Governance.
Distance learning and hybrid (in-person and distance learning) options are available for some courses.
