Have you ever aspired becoming a Private Investigator or starting up your own Private Investigation Agency? 

This course is fully online.  You are in control of your online learning experience.  Live Zoom lectures will commence weekly on Monday's detailing the content material.

The course has been completely revamped.  More detailed and comprehensive.  

These may be some of the reasons of becoming a Private Investigator or creating your own PI Business:

• You are seeking a career where there is a requirement for you to know about the laws and regulations of private investigation, evidence gathering, interview techniques, surveillance techniques, workplace and corporate investigations and undercover or covert investigations.
• You have studied or have an interest in law, but want to specifically know the techniques on how to commence an investigation, handle evidence, proper note taking, conduct interviews, maintaining the integrity of files, writing concise reports and prepare court-ready documents.
