Since Discovery's inception, the academy continues to prepare our graduates to be successful professional investigators in the fast paced legal field.
Discovery Detective Academy's roots go back to California in the 1970's. A select few including our Marc Allan along with Milo Spiriglio of Nick Harris Detectives fame, put together one of the first state licensed investigation courses for the public at Nick Harris Detective Academy. Marc Allan was chief instructor in charge of all curriculum until 1996 when he brought his expertise to start Discovery Detective Academy. Mr. Allan's investigative knowledge, commitment to excellence in education, and his continued mentoring of past alumni from both Nick Harris Detective Academy & Discovery Detective Academy have set us apart from all other investigation training classes.
Our academy provides a unique educational experience for our students as we are the only investigation course state licensed in AZ available to the public. Additionally we strive to have the most comprehensive in class - instructor led investigation course in the nation.
Applying our knowledge to secure your future.
Discovery Detective Academy is a sister company of Discovery Detective Group, a California & Arizona state licensed investigation company, founded in 1981.
