Best Answer

Secret Service agents go through rigorous training to perform their job effectively. All agents must go through about 7 months worth of training when they are initially hired. Once an agent has gone through the initial training, if they want to be on a protection detail, they must work in a field office for six to eight years. After spending six to eight years in the field, agents will then be transferred to work on a protection detail for three to five years. During this time, both in the field and on a protection detail, agents are encouraged and at times required to take classes offered both by the secret service and by other law enforcement agencies.

ISI which is the Pakistani secret service can receive the title of best secret service in the world because of its operations and training and secrecy over time. Not a single agent has been caught, even on camera or defected from the service since it's creation in 1948. But again this can be debatable.
