Stoic OSINT
Build the analyst, not dependence on a tool.
IGSP follows the Knowmad OSINT Stoic OSINT philosophy: prioritize transferable skillsets, investigative workflows, and reasoning over dependence on tools that may change, disappear, or become inaccessible.
The course also takes a Jack of All Trades approach to OSINT—helping learners work across analytical tradecraft, imagery, geospatial research, transport tracking, digital investigations, and social research rather than treating each as an isolated specialty.
