Applied analytical output is published by the KBA13 Intelligence Center. Research and publication run through the Research Center and KBA13 Publishing. Applied AI development sits with the AI Laboratory, and institutional advisory work with KBA13 Consulting.

Entry requirements are set out under admission, how completed work is recognized under certification, and the Academy’s approach to teaching under learning philosophy. Organizations training a team should look at institutional programs rather than individual enrollment.
