How can you become a CSI?

Answer 1

If you read a realistic job description of a CSI, it's clear that the television show CSI: Crime Scene Investigation doesn't accurately portray the profession.

To be a CSI, you have to be physically fit and agile. You must have a firearm while working, so you'll be trained to handle a weapon for safety precautions.

To qualify to be a CSI you need exactly 720 hours of training in crime scene processing; you also need a combined total of 240 hours of training in 5 other important fields such as Photography and fingerprinting.

The job requires much police work, and can often at times be dangerous and unsafe. There can be hostage situations, gun fire, and other risky factors. Remember that being a CSI means that, though it could rarely happen, you're involved with a murder - you could become a personal target of the perpetrator if something goes wrong.

Finally, you need to have a strong sense of justice. Being a CSI involves court cases, hearings, interrogations and observing many details at the crime scene to put perpetrator(s) in prison. The job is a mental and emotional challenge but can be enjoyable for those who want to help others and send criminals to jail.

Answer 2

You need certificates in science, Biology, physics, anatomy. Also, you need to go 4 years in a university in forensics science. Then you will have a 9 month training in how to collect evidence, process crime scenes and how to use your tools. Then different agencies will knock your door and ask you to work for them.
