        Intelligence Fundamentals Professional Certification (IFPC)
        Certification Description
        The Intelligence Fundamentals Professional Certification (IFPC) was developed to accomplish the goal set forth by the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security (USD(I&S)) to professionalize the defense intelligence workforce. The IFPC has established a common standard of the fundamental knowledge and skills expected of all who currently serve in and support, and those who hope to serve in and support, the Defense Intelligence Enterprise (DIE). The IFPC is based on cross-cutting and enterprise-wide Defense Intelligence Fundamentals standards, which depict the core expectations of what all Defense Intelligence Professionals, regardless of Service/Agency, Function/Specialty and experience level, must know and be able to do to successfully execute and contribute to the execution of intelligence missions, functions, and activities at the fundamental level. The IFPC will also serve to ensure incoming defense intelligence professionals meet knowledge standards. To earn the IFPC, you must meet all eligibility requirements and pass the 90-question IFPC exam. The certification lasts for three (3) years and may be renewed by retaking/passing the IFPC exam or achieving a higher-level certification from a program endorsed by the USD(I&S).
