Course Information

Description: IASOF is a 2-day course that seeks to provide attendees with the general knowledge and skills necessary to successfully operate in a US interagency environment, including the fundamental principles and guidance to facilitate collaboration with other US Government agencies, IGOs, and NGOs while performing SOF missions across the full spectrum of conflict. The course features guest speakers from different organizations integral to successful IASOF collaboration. Lecture presentations and discussions are used to provide an overview of the doctrine, planning, coordination, integration, employment and implementation of effective IASOF collaboration in activities at the operational level of conflict or crisis resolution.

Target Audience: IASOF is designed for USSOCOM and subordinate command personnel in the grades of noncommissioned officer through O-5. This course also targets DoD and non-DoD US Government personnel whose job requires knowledge of interagency operations and will likely deploy outside of the United States. Non-SOF personnel and governmental personnel, who work or train with interagency personnel, will also benefit from participation in this course.
