Surveillance Level 1

Surveillance is the backbone of the private investigation industry in Ontario and it is essential that new investigators master this art quickly.  Far too often private investigation agencies push new investigators onto the road as surveillance operatives without providing adequate training.  The Surveillance Level 1 course provided by JAMES WINTER ASSOCIATES is designed to provide a comprehensive framework for surveillance investigators to learn and develop all the necessary skills to conduct surveillance and discreetly obtain video evidence.

This course is of particular interest to new or aspiring private investigators, however, it is open to current surveillance investigators from other agencies who feel they require a more thorough and structured training program.

This advanced surveillance training course is designed for private investigators who desire to become experts at surveillance and move forward in their careers.  The Surveillance Level 2 course is focused on more advanced surveillance techniques with an emphasis on practical exercises in the community.   Students will develop skills for handling surveillance in difficult circumstances, dangerous conditions and unusual environments.
