The Department of Business and Professional Regulation will be holding a Rules Workshop for Home Inspectors (9:00am - 12:00pm) on May 5, 2010 at 1940 North Monroe Street in Tallahassee Florida.
Yes, if you don’t have what you need to get a license, you can instead join Florida InterNACHI and be grandfathered. Read: http://www.floridainternachi.org/
But I would wait until the Department decides everything for certain. The rules have not yet been determined exactly.
We applied (without a formal application which won’t be available until July) for Department approval already and the Department acknowledged receipt. I believe that InterNACHI is the only school that has applied for course approval.
