The course has provided me with a method to break down and clarify my thinking around operational problems of all kinds, not just influence and deception.”

Awesome course! A must for Field-grade and Senior Commissioned Officers. Many applications in Strategic Planning and effective implementation of military plans. Well executed. Operational Commanders will need this training.”

Exceptional course! Simply and smartly executed with direct application to multiple focus areas. This course will show you how brilliant and accessible influence and deception strategies can be applied operationally.”

Brilliant course and well presented. I feel that the elements presented to me will make me more effective in my role. I’d recommend it to the rest of my team.”

This is hands down the most organized class I have taken since being operational. It’s not just about deception but how to think and then how to convey ideas to colleagues.”

The Artifice System fills a void in current tools and techniques for adversary planning. I will use this in every element of leading my operational teams.”

The Artifice 6 Block Model and other constructs for approaching influence and deception were fantastic, and will be useful throughout our work.”

The knowledge gained in this course will absolutely be beneficial to enabling successful operations in cyberspace.”

10/10. This course fired up my brain and shifted gears to start analysing in a more effective and ‘out of the box’ way.”

Currently it is the only course that is most closely applicable to my role, and I plan to send my subordinate planners, and recommend it in the strongest terms to my peers. It is fantastic.”

The course was very beneficial, it helped me understand what aspects drive operational activity and it provided the specialist language to discuss deception operations.”

The course provided a methodology which makes you focus on what you actually want to achieve and how you might do it. I will be using this in the future.”

I consider myself to be a technical operator within the cyber effort. This course highlighted the need to examine the softer skillset of deception and its place in the wider effort.”

Solid informative framework to use when developing operations by using detailed modelling and concise language. Will certainly have a major impact on my future work and simplification of ops planning.”

The framework provides a more methodical approach than we currently use. Really breaking down the steps will help us to consider the problem more fully.”
