Okay, I'm home and have an open copy of I.S.T. in front of me.
This is the common training all operatives get; the IST has the equivalent of special forces, SWAT, and other elite squads; they get the appropriate training of course.
Hope that helps!

-how many IST embassies there are in USA?
Quote:I believe the IST basic training is covered in a sidebar in Supers, but briefly each super gets Area Knowledge for both Host City and Country at IQ, Computer Ops/TL8 at IQ, History (Intl., UN) at IQ-1, choice of Karate or Judo at DX, Language (Host Country) at IQ, Strategy at IQ-1 and Tactics at IQ-1. They also have the option of acquiring Language (English), Language (French) and History (Host Country) at whatever level they choose.
