How to get into the Combat Intelligence Collection Corps, and what its training looks like

The Combat Intelligence Collection Corps asks for a medical profile of 82 and up and a Hebrew score of 5.

The way into the Combat Intelligence Collection Corps runs through 2 steps.

1. 1A first call-up with profile 82, or 72 with clauses that allow it.
2. 2For women: the women fighters' screening and a commitment to 32 months of service.

Training at the Combat Intelligence Collection Corps lasts about 8 months.

The IDF's guides say what to train for before the screening.

A combat corps such as armour or artillery asks for profile 72 and a body mass index between 17 and 35. Steady running and the IDF's strength routine two or three times a week are the base.

The role has its own page on the IDF's site for future soldiers.
