The FIND Standard™
#Knowledge | #Integrity | #Professionalism | #Preparedness
FIND PI Training Academy is a professional academy focused on developing competent, ethical, and professionally prepared investigators. Your training is practical and grounded in applicable legal standards, documentation, and field expectations. We support ongoing development so you can maintain sound judgment and consistent professional practice over time.
Who We Are
";
FIND was created to meet a clear need in the investigative field -- training that is practical, structured, and grounded in the legal standards that shape real work. We built FIND for people who take professional responsibility seriously and want instruction that holds up in the field and in the record.
;
Why FIND Exists
";
Too often, investigators are left to piece together preparation from scattered sources, informal advice, or short-term exam cramming. FIND closes that gap with consistent instruction that connects licensing requirements to day-to-day practice, clear documentation habits, and lawful decision-making at every step.
;
What We Provide
";
We offer licensing preparation and exam readiness systems built to last beyond the test. We also provide continuing education, skill refreshers, and professional development resources that support stronger casework, clearer reports, and better judgment under pressure.
;
For Every Career Stage
";
Whether you are preparing for licensing, newly licensed, or already established and seeking CE and career support, FIND is designed to stay with you. Our goal is steady, lifelong professional education that helps you grow, stay compliant, and advance with confidence.

The FIND Promise™
Every course developed by FIND PI Training Academy is designed with one objective: to provide practical, professional, and legally grounded education that supports long-term success in the investigative profession. While no training program can guarantee examination results, employment, licensure, or business success, every FIND course is built to strengthen understanding, improve confidence, reinforce ethical decision-making, and encourage continuous professional growth. Students are responsible for their own learning, study habits, and preparation. FIND provides the tools. Professional success comes from applying them consistently.
