Been applying to local home inspection companies in order to gain that experience with no luck. James, you may want to contact some CMIs or CPIs within 40 to 50 miles, or closer, to your area and communicate with them. Maybe one, or more, will help you. Some inspectors feel as though they are training their competition by ride-alongs or mentoring or hiring. Here is the link for CMIs: [Find a Certified Master Inspector®](https://certifiedmasterinspector.org/members) And the link for CPIs: [Find Certified Home Inspectors Near You - InterNACHI®](https://www.nachi.org/certified-inspectors) And Mentors: [Home Inspector Mentoring - InterNACHI®](https://www.nachi.org/mentoring) and [InterNACHI® - International Association of Certified Home Inspectors](https://www.nachi.org/my/mentoring) Also, you may want to take advantage of your Education Team at [education@internachi.org](mailto:education@internachi.org) for specific questions e.g. [15 Steps to Become a Successful Home Inspector - InterNACHI®](https://www.nachi.org/become-home-inspector.htm) and [InterNACHI® Master Class for Home Inspectors](https://www.nachi.org/masterclass.htm) . And there is the new training cards app Chris Morrell, our CEO, offers: [New training app for home inspectors](https://forum.nachi.org/t/new-training-app-for-home-inspectors/113364) And there is the [Helpful How-To Videos - InterNACHI®](https://www.nachi.org/howto.htm) for many other things.
