High School
To prepare for a career as a bail bondsman, focus on computer science, accounting, mathematics, government, social studies, and geography. Accounting, computer science, and mathematics will prepare you to handle bookkeeping, record keeping, and negotiations concerning bail money. Because you'll be using a computer for tracing bail jumpers, try to spend as much time as you can honing your computer and Internet research skills. Learning a foreign language, such as Spanish, will make your business more accessible to clients who do not speak English fluently.
