How to become a police intelligence analyst?

As a police intelligence analyst, your qualifications include the completion of a police academy training program, a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice or a relevant field of study, and the ability to pass a criminal background check. You also need several years of experience in crime analysis for these positions, but some law enforcement departments allow you to move into an analyst position after serving several years as a police officer. Police intelligence analysts have analytical, problem-solving, verbal and written communication, and time management skills, and a thorough understanding of criminal law.
