Course Brief
Whether you are a 30-year veteran or a newly licenced PI, this course is for you. Reporting is extremely critical in the Private Investigative field. More than half of your profession is dedicated to reporting your factual findings. There is a specific structure, flow, wording, tone, and inflection. Depending on the type of report you are writing, there will be exact and consistent wording and phrasing you will utilize per scenario, an art unto itself.
In this course, we will focus on the science of report writing, emphasizing surveillance report writing as the most common report. We have written thousands and thousands of reports at PI Course.ca, and have identified a scientific method to enhance the reporting formula. We have the expertise to push your reporting to the ultimate professional level, leaving you and the firm you work for or clients with a powerful piece of coherent information. A professionally put-together piece of evidence opponents will fear when correctly compiled.
The way a report is written is critical in your career. Miswriting a report can be the difference between being called to stand/witness or allowing your report to speak for you with no room for interpretation, proving you to be valuable to the company you work for and a sought-after investigator.
Your instructor has personally revamped the most prominent firm’s reporting procedures and helped revolutionize and modernize current reporting standards throughout the investigative industry. Leading firms have adopted your instructor’s reporting, which continues to be the standard in reporting.
