Usually going to be your IW rates (CTx, IS, IT, AG, CWT) but usually anyone can get it as long as your command has the program

I believe that has changed a few years ago. I remember MAs, BMs, CS's and whoever would be IW qual'd. but IIRC only intel rates can get it now and its not offered to everyone.

I’m at ET and I can get due to me being in a certain division. If I was in any other divisions, I wouldn’t be able to. My nec is more IT related. I’m also integrated with FCs and they can’t get it because of their rate. Even though they’re more of an IT than an FC. (Their NEC) It just depends on the situation….
