Private investigation involves lots of different missions from locating missing persons to the usual surveillance. The surveillance is the most common task for an investigator.

It all starts with the training

In order to get a private investigator license, you should start taking a private investigator course. The price for a certified course varies between $300 and $500 and lasts about three months.
