Is criminal profiling (as a career) exclusive to the FBI?
No, but they are probably the biggest employer and the best training source. Other agencies, ATF, Interpol, etc. might be another way to go. You still will have to go through the basic investigative training, with CP being sort of like a master's degree. You could hire out to the criminal defense bar, but don't quit your day job if you like to eat. Plus without some sort of training from a government agency, you'll have a difficult time getting qualified as an Expert Witness if you ever had to testify in court. |
