Although the Council of International Investigators is a comparatively young organization, having been formed in 1955, it has achieved a position within the private investigation business, and before the public, as the spokesperson for ethical private investigators throughout the world. Certified membership of the Council of International Investigators confers a level of distinction and prestige to those members who meet the strict criteria set for this type of member. The adoption of, and strict adherence to, the Council of International Investigators’ Code of Ethics has met with universal approval by public law enforcement agencies, legislatures, and public officials.
