JCITA serves as the DoW’s central authority for standardized counterintelligence (CI) training, education, and professional development across the military services, combatant commands, and select interagency partners. Its mission is to develop, deliver, and sustain joint CI training programs that prepare military, civilian, and contractor personnel to detect, deter, and defeat foreign intelligence threats targeting U.S. forces, operations, technologies, and national security interests.

The organization ensures training standardization across the joint force while integrates real-world threat intelligence into curriculum, and maintains alignment with DoW doctrine, policy, and operational priorities.

The CI SME (CCDC) serves as a senior Counterintelligence instructor and subject matter expert responsible for delivering advanced classroom and practical instruction that prepares CI Special Agents to independently conduct counterintelligence (CI) collection activities in cyberspace in accordance with applicable laws, national strategies, and Department of Defense policies. The position ensures agents are proficient in planning, executing, and documenting cyber-enabled CI collection operations while maintaining strict compliance with legal and policy frameworks.
