I own 1/2 of Inspection Universe. JM of PRO-LAB owns the other 1/2. That’s how they are connected. Read: http://www.inspectionconference.com/about-2/ We purchased it from Casey and O’Malley a few years ago.
JM handles the general sessions, the exhibitor hall, food, and fanfare. I handle the business success speakers, marketing presentations, and technical instructors. PRO-LAB handles hotel accommodations for the instructors. I handle their speaking fees and travel arrangements. I’ll be building the website for the upcoming Florida Inspection Universe. PRO-LAB built the one for Vegas. I also handle getting all the continuing education approvals from government agencies, other inspection associations, BPI, ICC, etc. Scroll down in http://www.nachi.org/inspection-conference-las-vegas-2015.htm
We don’t call it the InterNACHI Convention or the PRO-LAB Convention because it isn’t. It is an international industry event. Other inspection associations and other laboratories have booths there and make presentations there. We welcome exhibitors and presenters who offer products and services that compete with ours.
Inspection Universe is now the largest event in the inspection industry and growing each year.
Did you hand pick the ASHI representative?..

He can stay in a Kissimmee 1 star motel with the Disney crowd for about $60 a night. It’s really funny that inspectors claim to make $150 an hour but cringe about hotel pricing.

That’s $150 am hour on site. They never add in drive time, report writing time, or research time. I’ll bet 90% of inspectors don’t have a clue how much they really make Make an hour or if they know their cost percentage per inspection

Nick, you didn’t mention who is handling the arrangements for the conference hotel, this cheap bastard from NH would prefer a “value” location that saves a little money…I am not interested in the highest priced fancy name location. Just saying.
Mark, I’ll pay for your hotel room.

Is this the only one for 2016. I enjoyed the one Vegas a couple of weeks ago. I won’t be able to make it to this one.

Hi, I live in the Orlando area and I am currently taking the on-line classes, so far I am into my second class, by March I hope to have a lot more completed but may not have my license by then. Since I am not yet " in the business" so-to-speak, could someone like myself attend this conference? If so, where do I get the info for costs and such?

Nick,
Will any/all of the sessions/classes be approved by Florida DBPR for continuing ed requirements for Florida license renewals?
