    help with licensing

    Hi Michelle,

    I don't believe that IPIU can help you in actually obtaining your license, simply because licensing laws differ from state to state. They do help with certifying your training and experience. Please view the following thread for details.

    I'm relatively new here, so that's all the information I can give you. It just so happens that I remembered reading that thread the other day. Hope this helped!

    Dear Michelle,

    I think that maybe I.P.I.U. can help get us pointed in the right direction and open up some figurative doors. I am fairly new too. For me obtaining a License is still in a dream stage. I know I'll have to take advantage of every opportunity that comes my way and hope for a little luck to advance my career. It is not impossible, but it will take some effort.

    Malcolm,

    You are right. That 'figurative' perspective never dawned on me. Having a distinguished professional trade organization such as IPIU on your resume will be a definite plus!

    Your license requirements, are designated by your state, some states do not require a license. IPIU can assist you in verifying that you are a member of their association and that you have done some P.I. work for them while you were a member.

    I know in Pa. you need three yrs. experience and two verifiable certification of experience. My membership with IPIU will be accepted as a certification of experience. I do not know if this answers your question, but I hope it helps.

    Yes!

    The assistance is in a members only forum titled:

    "Obtaining Your Private Investigator License or Agency License!"
