We're proctoring required exams on Sept 13 at Mayfield Inn in Edmonton.

[Nick Gromicko]

Details coming tomorrow.

[Chris Marquis]

We will wait and see. Thanks

[Vern Mitchinson]

About bloody time. Nick I hope tomorrow you have the list of approved courses the test is going to be set on.
We need to know so that we can study for the test.

[ctasker]

any chance of Red Deer location, meet in the middle, thanks.

[Nick Gromicko]

Vern, the approved course list is here: www.nachi.org/alberta.htm

[Nick Gromicko]

BTW: I'm only doing this once, because I promised the government that InterNACHI's HQ would run the first exam proctoring day. They are coming to observe and tweak if need be.

After this though, you guys are on your own and the AB Chapter will need to offer this to future license applicants for a fee. InterNACHI HQ does not want a cut.

Really?? This is what I get....

Government of Alberta approves InterNACHI's program for licensing of home inspectors.

InterNACHI is pleased to announce that its online course program has been approved by the government of Alberta, Canada for the licensing of home inspectors and has been listed on the Service Alberta government website.

Applicants will have to complete InterNACHI's free, online inspection courses from the comfort of their own homes (see curriculum below) and take two comprehensive proctored exams (being offered in Alberta soon). Each exam is 250 questions and applicants can take (write) one exam in the morning, stop for a lunch break, then take (write) one exam in the afternoon.

InterNACHI only recently received informal approval (see emails below) on August 11, 2011, so we don't have all the details and logistics in place yet, but we will in the next coming days.

from: Scott Hood ✆ to Nick, Don, Ben

4:22 PM August 11, 20011

I will send a formal letter confirming the approval and attaching some basic conditions.
Consider yourself approved.

Scott

When they apply we'll need them to attach their certificate from InterNACHI.

Return to this page for more information in the next few days or visit our message board thread regarding the licensing of home inspectors in Alberta and InterNACHI's approval.

Note: The regulation grandfathers Certified Master Inspectors® (CMI). For those who qualify, becoming a Certified Master Inspector® is probably a simpler way to acquire a license.
