SGC is pleased to offer an Accredited Investigator Training (AIT) course online. Click here to sign-up.
Students must complete all 9 modules, logging a minimum total of 60hrs and then the online Provincial exam under the supervision of a proctor with 80% or above to receive provincial certification and apply for an Investigator License in Alberta.
Once you have logged your required 60hrs you will be able to download your Training Completion Certificate and instructions to book your Online Exam. The online exam is paid separately to the exam provider and costs $50.
In Alberta, a licensed Investigator can investigate things like:
- accidents and personal injury
- damaged or stolen property
- backgrounds and whereabouts of people
While investigating you:
- collect information
- interview people
- conduct surveillance
- obtain statements
- research reports or records
Licences are issued under the Security Services and Investigators Act by Alberta Justice and Solicitor General.
After you have completed your course and passed the exam you may apply for your Alberta Investigator License. The license fee is $160. Your licence is valid for 2 years. This is paid directly to the government with your application.
