There is not training needed to be a bounty hunter. ( At least in Georgia).
Bounty hunters are basically gophers for Bail bondsman.
I believe you’re referring to a bondsman. They have schools that are designed especially for that. Some states offer these programs in law enforcement academies, but you do not study or train along side of the police recruits. If you plan on carrying a gun, then you have to get your concealed weapons permit unless you choose to walk around with your gun on your hip (not a smart thing to do).
I don’t believe there is any REQUIRED training…however, if you’re planning to go into the field, you’re definitely going to want some different things. First, you’ll need to be in pretty good shape. You have to remember, that many of these people are going to fight you, you need to be ready for that…which leads into #2…you’ll definitely benefit from self-defense, martial arts training.
Bounty hunters that carry guns, invite a whole extra can of trouble on themselves. Many people feel more powerful/more invincible with that gun. There’s a reason many bounty hunters DON’T use guns. Take Dog Chapman…he and his crew use pepper/mace foam…as do many bounty hunters I know (though I don’t know any of them all that well).
Most bounty hunters are bail bondsman, and I do believe you have to be licensed for that…but for the act of going after someone jumping bail…again, I’m not sure.
Go talk to a few bail bonds companies and ask them.
