i2 Analyst's Notebook

A failure to understand the purpose of data visualisation and the role and correct use of charting software in the analytical process often leads to flawed analysis.

Many training providers work with the software distributor - with the aim of trying to sell you more software. Often, it’s software or additional licences that you don’t really need.  

Skillful doesn’t like to work this way. We have been asked to, but refused.

Although we like Analyst’s Notebook and considerate it a very valuable tool, our primary focus is on improving analytical capability, regardless of which tool you use.

We are a fully independent, New Zealand owned, provider of i2 Analyst's Notebook training workshops.  

With no business interest in selling software, we can focus solely on building your analytical capability when using this tool. We will tell you the truth about the software - both the good and the bad - and its place in your analytical toolkit. 

We offer the most experienced Analyst’s Notebook users and trainers in New Zealand (and probably the world), drawing on nearly 30 years practical experience using Analyst's Notebook in real-life situations and over 25 years training Analyst's Notebook users around the world. 

Our trainers are also highly experienced analysts and investigators - with backgrounds in intelligence analysis; investigations into transnational crime; terrorism; national-level intelligence management; plus, international experience in training development and delivery for intelligence practice and analytical charting tools.  

Our team is led by Mark Boyce, who was trained and certified as an i2 trainer by the software developers, i2 Limited in Cambridge, England.

Mark has taught Analyst's Notebook to many hundreds of analysts and investigators from various law enforcement, regulatory compliance, defence, government and commercial organisations internationally. 

Mark brings an unparalleled blend of personal knowledge and international experience to each i2 training workshop delivered.
