The Georgia Association of Professional Private Investigators (GAPPI) is a self-governing association of Private Investigators. GAPPI was created to educate members, enforce a code of ethics, and to establish mutual feelings of trust and friendships among its members and other investigative agencies throughout Georgia and the United States of America. GAPPI also strives to monitor and educate members about legislative issues that directly affect the investigative industry. The organization provides educational conferences, networking opportunities, and resources to support its members in their professional growth and development. GAPPI accomplishes its educational goals through the Southeast Investigators Conference, held annually, a spring conference, and monthly Chapter meetings.
