Henley-Putnam University Review


Henley-Putnam University is the only university that focuses specifically in military education. The school is committed to helping students develop into full-fledged military, security and intelligence professionals. Towards this end, students are given the opportunity to learn under the mentorship of an elite team that is dedicated to the students’ allegiance. They are taught skills that will help them specialize in the strategic security industry, in areas such as Intelligence Management, Protection Management and Counterterrorism. This education will teach them management and prevention of security issues.

The first name of Henley-Putnam was the California University of Protection and Intelligence Management, when it was founded. The school was created to help students learn more about the fields of intelligence and counterterrorism. Many of the founders of the school had spent years working with agencies like the CIA, FBI and the Secret Service and used their knowledge to create programs based on real-world experience. In 2007, the name of the school was changed in order to honor two Revolutionary War figures; as well as a reflection of the school’s numerous offerings. The main campus of the school is in San Jose, CA, but students can take a wide variety of courses online.

Henley-Putnam is among the very few schools that offers education totally focused in the fields of intelligence and criminal justice. Students are provided with highly relevant instruction through instructors who have vast experience and leaders in their tradecraft. All students have the advantage of partnering up with several law enforcement, military and security agencies, and obtain hands-on experience while doing their graduation program.

Faculty that teaches both on-campus and online students is highly qualified and hails from prestigious schools like Stanford, Cambridge and Yale. Before enrolling in the school’s programs, all students are subjected to background checks. This is done because the programs have to do with law enforcement and security fields. The flexibility of the online programs allow students to continue with their professions while attending virtual school. Currently, Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctorate levels are offered. Bachelor’s and Master’s programs are offered in Protection Management, Intelligence Management and Counterterrorism. Doctorate program is offered in Strategic Security.

One of the best things about taking up these courses at Henley-Putnam is that students are not left alone to study on their own. Each and every student is paired with industry mentors and faculty to make it a huge learning experience. Access to the coursework is provided at any time of the day or night.

Henley-Putnam makes it possible for students to earn a high quality degree they need in order to advance their careers in the shortest time possible, without having to give up on their current career. The defining moment for any student interested in today’s strategic security industry is the decision taken to further their education, as that will be the beginning of a successful life.

Completing a degree from this university increases the opportunities for advancement through specialized assignments, recognition for having been a great contributor, enhanced chances of promotion and better team leadership opportunities.
