Professional Home Inspector Training by Gary Rose - CMI CGLI

Are you currently looking for a career change, or thinking of becoming a Home Inspector in Canada? If so, and you’re unsure of which way to turn then consider the following, it is by far the cheapest & easiest way to become a Home Inspector in Canada. 

 

Once you become a member of InterNACHI, all study material & education is provided in order for you to become a fully licensed professional Home Inspector. It is provided online by InterNACHI – its FREE, and second to none!

 

For those that have a construction background, the feedback from various people that have taken exams, & have completed a test inspection & peer review, have found InterNACHI’s study material to be very professional, educational, concise and well structured.

For those that have no construction background, the feedback is mixed and studying takes a little longer. That said, everything you need to become a Home Inspector is well documented within InterNACHI’s course material – and it’s FREE to members!

Depending on your background, input and how well you retain information, you can study at your leisure – no classroom or peer pressure, or with experience you can fast track yourself & people have been known to complete the entire course within 6 to 8 weeks – easily – with ‘no’ prior knowledge!

Having completed the course, but having never completed a Home Inspection before, you now need to arrange final exams, test inspection & peer review, & this is what most students find daunting & unnerving.

Even with a construction background lots of students become nervous when the time comes to remove the cover from your first electrical panel & examine the components & test properly – there’s much more to a proper electrical inspection than just standing there and shining your torch on the breakers!

 

The same can be said with the heating system, structure, roof, siding & sump pumps etc..
