Becoming a private investigator

[Gshock]

Hello everyone,


I was wondering what ya'll can suggest for someone wanting to become a private investigator. I currently reside in CA, (San Diego area) and I am looking for a reputable school to attend, I am weary of the 'fly by night' type of guard training facilities out there.

I'm not sure where to start or look for employment. My background unfortunately doesn't include law enforcement or military which is what alot of employers for investigations would like to see. I just worked as a armed guard for the least 3 years, and I am looking for a change.


Thank you.
