About
the CII
In October of 1955, a group of well-known and
highly respected private investigators gathered informally in Chicago,
Illinois. The purpose of this meeting was to consider the formation of
a close knit organization that they could trust to handle
investigatory matters in their respective local areas.
Emphasis was put on "Quality" not
"Quantity".
As the existence of this professional group became known due
to its lofty standards of integrity, ethics, and mutual trust,
many other investigators sought to be accepted into "The
Council". The original group expanded the membership and
areas of world coverage through careful selective screening of
applicants.
Today, membership in "The Council" adds dignity and
prestige to each individual member selected for certified
membership status. Since the membership consists of persons of
the same basic high qualities, a warm friendship and mutual
trust exists which enhances the social and business
relationship of the Council. The adoption of and strict
adherence to the Council Code of Ethics has met with universal
approval by public law enforcement agencies, legislatures, and
public officials. It also assures Council clients of the
highest professional efforts in the pursuit of their interest.
Although comparatively young in years, the Council of
International Investigators has achieved the position in our
profession and before the public, as the spokesman for ethical
investigators throughout the world. The Council is already
rich in tradition and reputation for excellence in our service
area.
