Default What is the fair thing to do for the next several Commercial Inspection courses?

Does anyone have a suggestion for a way to fairly offer a bunch more Commercial Inspection courses like www.nachi.org/comden.htm across N. America? Where should we hold them next and how do we decide?

I'd like to get at least 1,000 NACHI members trained up to offer commercial inspections this year and that equates to about 20 cities.

Off the top of my head I'm not sure how to pick the cities and in what order so that everyone isn't screamin' bloody murder at us.

Help requested.

Seattle was mentioned and several people indicated interest. I think they should be hubs of the housing industry and be areas that inspectors will feel are fair in travel time and distance. I think there are some naturals:

Seattle
Houston
Miami
Sacramento
Milwaukee
Washington DC
Portland
Las Vegas
New England somewhere
for a start.....

If you do decide to do Seattle Nick, please let me know ahead of time and I'll give up my spot in Denver to someone closer to that one who may not be able to go otherwise.

Anywhere on the East coast is fine with me. You posted a thread stating that New York would be the next course, so please follow through with your promise.

You'll get an excellent turn-out in this part of the States.

Cincinatti is a good central hub for this area.

Pulls in Kentucky, West Virginia, Western Pennsylvania, Indiana, Tennessee, Illinois, etc

James, I was trying, but all I could come up with was Lincoln Nebraska, and I wasn't sure if that was appropriate or not. Sorry.

Add either Kansas City or St. Louis. KC could pull in all of MO, KS, most of OK, Omaha, etc. Plus it is easy to get to by airline. That should be a very important factor in deciding where to have it is accessibility.

Omaha. That was another name that just wasn't coming to me. I used to live in Lincoln so couldn't shake that out of my head. Of course Omaha is the more appropriate selection. St Louis was another one and a wonderful choice considering the other reasons to go there such as the arch etc.

Yep, those were in my mind as well. But I really didn't know a convenient hub for that area. Thanks for speaking up!

Why not just in from the outer border lines of the corner states close to the next state in and thru the center of the US ocean to ocean and canada to mexico staying on the inside borders of those states, should cover the USA.
