Licensing of home inspectors only sets a minimum standard. Much like being up to code, any less would be illegal. That's why I have worked to become a member of the National Association of Certified Home Inspectors (NACHI).

As a NACHI member:

• C2HI passes NACHI's Inspector Examination every year. This general, not association-specific exam is an industry standard required by NACHI and some state licensing boards,
• C2HI adhere to the industry's largest, most comprehensive Standards of Practice,
• C2HI  abides by NACHI's Code of Ethics,
• C2HI follows a strict continuing education policy that requires, among other things, that I receive a minimum of 24 hours of continuing education each year,
• C2HI has completed NACHI's ethics "obstacle course" which ensures that we am aware of our ethical duties as a home inspector,
• C2HI passed NACHI's Standards of Practice exam,
• C2HI has signed and submitted an affidavit legally agreeing that we have and will continue to adhere to all NACHI standards, ethics and education requirements,
• C2HI maintains a continuing education log that is verified by NACHI,
• C2HI  submits a portion of our inspection reports to NACHI's report review committee for outside evaluation,
• C2HI is required to successfully complete NACHI's comprehensive Standards of Practice course and examination, Roofing course and examination, Structural course and examination and Electrical course and examination,
• C2HI attends at least one chapter meeting or educational seminar every two years,
• C2HI  has access to the Inspector's Quarterly so we can keep up-to-date on all the latest issues in the home inspection industry,
• C2HI  has access to a number of learning tools such as inspection tips and technique illustrations, a library of home inspection books and videos, the industry's largest message board, NACHI's "what's new" publication of recent inspection news, Dear NACHI," a detailed advice column, free online courses, quizzes, and exams, and the NACHI University,
• C2HI has access to NACHI's report review and mentoring service,
