Private Investigations
Nationally recognised private investigations courses delivered by expert trainers across Australia.
About Private Investigations
Private investigation is a regulated profession in most Australian states and territories. Most states require investigators to hold a relevant security or investigator licence, which means completing a nationally recognised qualification is a key step in gaining employment.
Investigators must operate within the bounds of Australian privacy legislation, trespass laws, and surveillance regulations. Asset College's training ensures graduates understand not just the practical skills, but the legal boundaries that govern lawful investigative work.
Career pathways in investigations include roles with insurance companies, legal firms, government agencies, and private investigation businesses. Experienced investigators can also progress into corporate intelligence, due diligence, and fraud investigation.
