It is very difficult to navigate to find what you want at this site.
More members including myself go to other sites where finding what you need for answers is faster.
The answers or info may be here but a better navigation system is needed.
Result would be more page views and even higher rank.

I agree Bob. I basically gave up trying to find anything here except the MB and CE courses a long time ago. Even the search tab at top of message board needs some tweaking.

The benefits, particularly the on-line education is such a great resource that, through the kind participation of Nick, we have arranged that any member of ACHI who is not already an member of NACHI is eligible for a FREE membership in this organization.
We at ACHI feel that every new inspector should be a member of NACHI in order to benefit from the industry's premier on-line education resource.

On behalf of ACHI members and new inspectors across Canada;

THANKS NICK!

Looks to me Like NICK is a smart manager .
He gives out a group of free memberships and gets a group of members who many or most will renew next year .
The cost to him is small and the rewards are ????????

You've said many times 90% of inspectors last 3 yrs. or less. So maybe 1/2 will renew once?

I think 50% is still better then ZIP .

I think NICK knows what he is doing ...

I do not always agree wityh Nick but remember
Rule # 1 the boss is always right.
Rule #2 even if the boss is wrong .
Rule # 1 still applies

We use free first-year memberships to target inspectors who we think will improve InterNACHI's overall bloodline over time. Examples: if we catch a non-member voluntarily taking an advanced training course, buying an infrared camera, joining a local inspection association, applying for CMI, etc... we do what we have to, to get those inspectors into InterNACHI.
