Re: I want to become a detective

A detective, sometimes referred to as an investigator, normally works with a law enforcement agency. Called in for specific situations, a detective collects evidence and analyzes the facts in a criminal case.

Education requires:
Candidates have High school diploma and bachelor's degree

The only way to become a police detective is to work as a police officer. You need to pass a test, and earn promotion to detective through the department.

If you want to pursue a career as a detective without going through the police academy and working as an officer first, you can become a private investigator, or PI.
