Texas Private Investigator Training: Your Path to Certification & Confidence

Whether you're starting a new career or sharpening your expertise, becoming a licensed private investigator in Texas requires more than intuition and a trench coat—it demands real training, legal understanding, and ongoing education. That’s where Texas Investigator Institute steps in.

Why PI Training Matters in Texas

Texas doesn’t take shortcuts when it comes to investigative work. The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation (TDLR) sets clear requirements for becoming a licensed private investigator, including approved continuing education (CE) courses to keep your knowledge fresh and compliant.
