Licensing, Certifications and Associations

Supersonic Safety Research is a Private Investigation firm, and if you visit our web site - www.missingnomore.com - you will see the services we currently offer.  However; we are always interested in expanding and growing our business while our employees look to pursue their interests and build their resumes.  Supersonic Safety Research is always mindful of checking to see if licensing is required - this is a must!   Certifications and Associations are great to have and nice to belong to, they can also give you credibility, but do the research and make sure they are reputable.

Association of Certified Fraud Examiners

 As a Private Investigator you will want to be licensed in the state/s you are operating in; however you may also want to add some certifications to your resume along with accessing valuable resources.  You may have one niche or many.  Supersonic Safety Research is always looking for what is available and what may be beneficial to our business.  Here is an interesting certification and association:  Association of Certified Fraud Examiners.  This association offers membership, certification and training for those interested in preventing, detecting and investigating fraud.  Here is their web site:

The Pinkertons National Detective Agency

  

Allen Pinkerton was born in Scotland  in 1819, he emigrated to the United States in 1842.  By trade he was a cooper (barrel maker).  The Pinkerton National Detective Agency was founded by Allen Pinkerton in 1850, and is currently a subsidiary of Securitas.

Social Networking Info

 FYI from Supersonic Safety Research:  

Remember social networking and 'friending' is guided by your supervising Attorney's Code of Ethic Conduct in Michigan.  Facebook and such are yet to be mentioned by the Michigan Bar Association's ethics decisions.  Be careful and get a Private Investigator or legal investigator familiar with your State's rules. ' Friending' someone for investigative reasons might not be admissible in your regional or local Court.

Dashiell Hammett

Yesterday  I talked about Supersonic Safety Research's Monthly Trivia Contest and today I'm going to give you a little trivia.

DYK -  Did You Know  Dashiell Hammett, whose full name was Samuel Dashiell Hammett, not only created Sam Spade (The Maltese Falcon), but also Nick  and Nora Charles (The Thin Man).  Mr. Hammett drew on his experiences as a former Pinkerton to develop his detective novels.  I have always heard of the Pinkertons and was vaguely familiar with them, but after stumbling upon this bit of trivia I started to read more about the Pinkertons and now I am curious to research their history in a little more depth. Future blog posts will feature interesting facts as I learn more about the Pinkertons.

The Maltese Falcon

Get out the popcorn there is a great double feature on TCM (Turner Classic Movies) tonight. Two classic films both starring Humphrey Bogart; first up is "Casablanca", followed by "The Maltese Falcon".  "The Maltese Falcon" is one of the best Private Investigator movies and is based on the novel of the same name by Dashiell Hammett.  Humphrey Bogart plays the lead - Private Detective Sam Spade.   A must see.

 It is AWESOME that Supersonic Safety Research is owned by another 'Sleuthing Sam' and yes, our Facebook name PI Sam is a tip of the hat to that fact.     

Never Assume

So, we've talked about the KISS METHOD,  MNEMONICS and not making ASSUMPTIONS.  Today we roll them all into one to KISS MNEMONICS and NEVER ASSUME.  Supersonic Safety Research proudly brings you the TV show; "The Odd Couple", starring Jack Klugman and Tony Randall reminding us to NEVER ASSUME.
