Educational: In some countries, private detectives should participate in specially designed training programs, and must have a license to practice. At present a detective does not require a license to operate within India. In 2007, though a Private Investigator Bill was introduced in the Rajya Sabha, it is still pending for approval.

Now there is no particular educational qualification necessary to enter this profession. The minimum qualification desirable is graduation, or an MBA for corporate investigations and a computer degree for computer forensics. A course in forensic/criminology or law is an added advantage.

Personal attributes: An aspiring detective should have excellent communication skills and an eye for detail. As a detective, you must be skeptical and not take anything at face value, must be a bold and adventurous person with an alert and inquisitive mind. He/She should have a tremendous presence of mind and be very tactful. The detective should be a person who works with precision and expect the unexpected. Detectives also learn skills on the job from experienced private detectives.
