Way to go Justin !!!
You guys are fantastic training partners in NC, Ken!
Way to Paste that exam, Justin! 
Great help Ken! 
This is my first post and wasnt sure if I should start a new thread or not … I just passed the NHIE and NC state exam as well … I’m going to start looking for work but I have a question regarding licensing. I’m finding it difficult to justify paying for GA and E&O just in order to receive a license number. I’m new to the field, have no job prospects as of yet, and have only lived here (Asheville area) a bit over a year. Any advice on how to approach this. I really don’t want to be paying a very high monthly premium on insurance if I may not be getting the inspections I need to recoup the cost. Also if anyone knows anyone or anywhere I can look or ask regarding some shadow work or “apprenticeship” I’d greatly appreciate that as well. Love this site and you all seem very respectful and informative to newbies like me so thank you all in advance.
Congratulations on passing the exams, Brady!
And, welcome to our forum!…Enjoy, the water is warm, most of the time! 
Brady, 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®
And the link for CPIs: Find Certified Home Inspectors Near You - InterNACHI®
And Mentors: Home Inspector Mentoring - InterNACHI® and https://www.nachi.org/my/mentoring
Also, you may want to take advantage of your Education Team at education@internachi.org for specific questions e.g. 15 Steps to Become a Successful Home Inspector - InterNACHI® and https://www.nachi.org/masterclass.htm .
And there is the https://www.nachi.org/howto.htm for many other things.

insurance may be individual coverage or coverage under an employer policy, with coverage parameters established by the Board.
