    I have been going thru all the forums. Reading, printing, ABSORBING .

    I'm really thankful there are so many people wondering and asking the same questions I've had running through my head.

    The NOT "being thrown to the dogs" not only made me smile but added reassurance and peace of mind.

    Thanks so much to all. Its appreciated by this "newbie"

    Very Intuitive Knowledge

    Dear Allen,

    Your advice was insightful to the interested party. As a new trainee, it is great to see that the cultivating of potential and newbies is unselfishly fostered.

    P.S. I chuckled at the idea that the diploma was excluded as a result of poor spelling (despite one's education); this statement is so true.

    Thanks for the great idea! I now have a note book full of print outs on topical information. All I have to do now is organize it with a table of contents. It keeps growing and growing and growing...

    My hope is to work for several agencies. It feels a little frustrating because I know with on the job training is key. The problem is it has been numerous years since I did investigate child abuse cases and may I say I was considered to be great as a guardian ad-ltem for family and superior court. It has been frustrating because I want back in NOW and I know it does not work that way. I also know that I did not forget all that i did years ago, sometimes I feel like it was yesterday. I do read as many post and forums as possible but I now will set an appointment to do it everyday so I can continue to learn more and more.

    From time to time I come back to this thread because it reinforces some ideas I need to enable me to be patient with the lenghty process in a time of advance technology and that on-the-job-training is a major key to successfully becoming a better professional.

    It is always so good to see such positive response, and people are still learning even though they have posted thousands-- I like the Investigative field because I am constantly learning.

    Hello everyone!

    I realy like all the information I get in this forum. I just paid for my membership and already have my credentials, so I guess all I have to do is wait for assignments.

    A Chance Benefit

    I , like others, have also found the info in this thread to be valuable. However, one thing that stands out for me is HOW I benefitted from it :
    One member asked about getting assignments before completion of training and another asked about a "free PI mag". They put their questions in the wrong thread, but it was good that they did so, since those questions had not occurred to me and, not having conceived of them, I would not have had any reason to ask them in the introductory section.

    I just happened to be reading this thread and there were the two members' questions, conveniently placed in the wrong thread

    Sometimes serendipity brings knowledge .

    Thanks for the feedback. Its great to learn that working for more than one agency would be more beneficial than one. Its also exciting to learn that there will be alot of assignments that can be performed and completed at your convenience.

    Good luck to you all.

    Re: Training & Assignments Big Hit

    IPIU is an awesome way to get experience and there are so many opportunities to work with different agencies under the same banner. If you try one area of investigation and find out that it is not a good fit you can change directions and still be racking up experience. As someone who has worked for Licensed Investigators on the outside of IPIU, this is where you want to be.

    I encourage everyone who is a free member of IPIU to upgrade and take the plunge. This is a great way to get paid experience and build a network of professionals.

    Re: Training & Assignments Big Hit

    TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU ON THIS:

    "As someone who has worked for Licensed Investigators on the outside of IPIU, this is where you want to be."

    I am a newly Licensed Private Investigator, so in my case I have worked for Licensed Agencies on the outside. And now I believe I am agreeing with this:

    "I encourage everyone who is a free member of IPIU to upgrade and take the plunge. This is a great way to get paid experience and build a network of professionals."

    I cannot wait to get my first paycheck from my agency so I can do just that: get a Union Membership. Thanks for pushing me over the edge and helping me make up my mind. I have wanted to for awhile, but after spending money on equipment, cameras, covert cameras, software, etc I have to be exceptionally sure of where I am investing my money. I am sold.
