I’d like to ask for your opinions: How are you using your CE (Continuing Education) credits as inspectors?

Besides the nachi requirement, the Gerry Beaumont award, those of us in licensed States need them to retain and renew our licenses.

Hello Jun, and nice Job! If you add another 14 CE credits to 2025, you can apply for the Gerry Beaumont Education Achievement Award again like you received in 2024.
안녕하세요, 준님! 잘하셨어요! 2025년에 CE 학점 14개를 더 추가하시면 2025년에 받으신 것처럼 Gerry Beaumont Education Achievement Award에 다시 지원하실 수 있습니다.
I’ve also seen websites where the inspector displays his CEs as a qualification.

Wasn’t there a recent thread about being able to use Nachi CE’s for other education institutions?

I generally choose mine with a “two-fer” goal of meeting CE requirements for other certifications. For me, those are BPI and Radon License.

In the field. There’s no need to “show boat” just use you knowledge every day in the field.

Great work Jungirl!
What is that, almost 90 CE credits per year since you joined in 2018? (Most members can’t say that.)

I completely understand what you mean.
Just to clarify, I wasn’t trying to show off — I’m genuinely curious.
In Korea, CE credits aren’t yet widely recognized or required, so there’s a lot of uncertainty about how they should be used.
Not only was I personally wondering, but many other members here have also been asking me similar questions.
I just wanted to better understand how inspectors in North America use their CE credits so I could give them an informed answer.
Thank you again for sharing your insight—I really appreciate it!

Hi Larry,
Thank you so much for your kind words!
I just wanted to clarify: the 621 CE credits are not the total accumulated since 2018, but rather the credits I earned just during the past year.
As you may know, I conduct four or more CPI training sessions per year in Korea, with each course lasting about six weeks.
Since the training programs include examination processes and live practical sessions, I naturally accumulate CE credits through these activities, even though that wasn’t my primary intention.
In addition, after completing their training, the new inspectors join me for ‘ride-alongs’.
In Korea, I refer to this as “Shadowing Inspections”, and it is provided free of charge to support their continuing hands-on education.
Some trainees have already participated in over 20 ride-along (shadowing) sessions with me to further strengthen their practical skills.

Thanks for the clarification, Jungirl. It is a lot of hard work. Or, maybe not so hard if one loves what they do? Nice!
설명 고마워요, 준걸. 정말 힘든 일이죠. 아니면, 자기 일을 좋아하는 사람이라면 그렇게 힘들지 않을 수도 있나요? 좋아요!
