David Sommer and I have just started today. I plan on taking advantage of all education relevant to Pre-licence training for the state of Oregon.

Could someone please inform me of how much time this may take max and min. estimated.

I have heard of the classes that are offered in CO. at the house of horrors and this looks to be 5 days.

Is it possible to attain the 20 education points required by the state of Oregon online in a similar amount of time.

Thank you for any help on this.

David

First, David, welcome to our forum! Enjoy! :smile:

Years ago it was possible for me to het 40 CEU hours in 4 days so to verify, email to fastreply@InterNAHI.org

Good luck David, you found the right place and that’s a good start!

Probably depends on whether the 5-day CO course is approved in Oregon, and if so, for how many hours. You could either contact your state licensing agency, which should list approved courses and the hours for which they’re approved (try this first), or ask InterNACHI (moranda@internachi.org).

Moranda is directly connected with the InterNACHI school. Better not to use fastreply@internachi.org, because that gets you to Nick, who will probably refer you to Moranda.

I would love to pick your brain on a few things, but for now can you give me you opinion on my post about pricing for commercial inspections. before I have to call it a night.

Thanks, much respect Brother!

Make sure they accept online. I had to take 75hrs in a class do to state regulations, not accepting any online courses. Due diligence…

I wish I could David, but I haven’t done commercial inspections. I’m in the process of researching commercial/ industrial systems in order to create a commercial narrative library, and that’s a slow process but doable, but I can’t give you any pricing information from personal experience except that those who seem to be successful at it don’t seem to be inclined to talk about their pricing in detail.

My impression is that prices vary according to the types/levels of services you offer, by region, by building type and use, by system complexity, the possible need to hire specialists, and according to what your skills, credentials, and reputation can command.
