Become a PI
As far as who can become a Texas PI, our belief is that anyone, age 18-80, can become a successful private investigator and earn the certificates and experience necessary to be successful.

Background & Experience
In terms of background and experience, we have seen people from all kinds of backgrounds succeed as PI’s including: single moms, vets, sales people, students, business owners, cops, nurses, Lyft drivers, and more.
"Is there anything that will keep me from becoming a PI?”
Aside from the challenges of getting licensed, getting your first case, finding good training, there are a few specific things that one cannot have to become a Texas PI and these include a felony conviction or a misdemeanor conviction for a crime of “moral turpitude”. Charges are not sufficient reason for denial by the regulators. If you have concerns, we can help.

Client Stories and Experiences
Dave and his team made this an amazing experience. I would recommend this course to anyone looking into becoming PI. There was so much information given in these 3 days. More than I ever imagined. The support continued even after the course was completed.
