Our institute has been offering the theoretical Private Investigator program for over ten years. During this program, students are carefully trained according to the SVPB exam requirements. However, over the years, we have observed a significant need for practical knowledge, especially after graduation. The limited availability of internships exacerbates this problem, often forcing private investigators to learn their skills on the job through trial and error.
To address this issue, we strive to bridge the gap between theory and practice with this registered Practical Diploma in Private Investigator program. The main goal of this program is to enhance the practical knowledge and skills essential for successfully practicing as a Private Investigator.
The program is structured around four practical modules, each designed to highlight a specific aspect of the profession. Students have the freedom to take these modules in any order, allowing for flexibility and personalization in the learning path. Each module focuses on applying theoretical knowledge in real-world scenarios, providing students with thorough preparation for the challenges they will face in their future professional lives.
This modular training comprises four practical modules, which can be completed in any order:
Who is this course developed for?
The registered program for the Practical Diploma in Private Investigator is primarily designed for students who already hold a Private Investigator or Special Investigation Officer diploma. However, the program is also open to employees of municipalities, insurance companies, banks, and other investigators who find the course content useful for their work.
Our students highly value the program for its practical and applicable nature. The theory presented during classes is often interspersed with practical exercises, allowing students to immediately put the material they learn into practice. The methodologies learned during the program can therefore be applied directly to students' daily work, making it extremely relevant and valuable.
Course formats: open, private, or customized.
While this training is primarily offered in a classroom setting, we understand that you may want to ask questions in a private setting due to the nature of your work. With a minimum of twelve participants, we can provide a private training course at our location. We also offer fully customized training courses based on (parts of) this training course. We are happy to provide a customized proposal.
All our instructors have been screened and have signed confidentiality agreements with various government agencies. A specific confidentiality agreement for your organization or agency is also possible.
