Why Join WAPI?

The Professionals Choice

As a Professional Investigator you have a responsible role to perform in society as well as gaining due reward from a worthwhile career. But are you getting the maximum benefits available from membership of any one of the various bodies which represent the industry? Indeed, are you aware of the many benefits and facilities which are offered by the World Association of Professional Investigators, the premier trade association for investigators world-wide?

Membership of the World Association of Professional Investigators, WAPI, is not just a question of paying an annual subscription for the right to attach a logo to your letter-heads. Membership of WAPI means so much more for the investigators who join our ranks.
