The next Washington state approved home inspection training course, offered at Bellingham Technical College, will begin on February 1, 2016. This was the first course to receive approval from the Washington State Department of Licensing, back in 2009. The four-week session includes 120-hours of fundamentals training and 40 hours of onsite field training.
Anyone, who wishes to enter the field of home inspection, must take a 120 hour fundamentals training course and complete 40 hours of approved field training prior to being allowed to sit for the Washington state exams. Online courses are disallowed and will not count toward the requirements.
At BTC we provide a fast-track program that takes a student from start to finish in four weeks (20 days). Classes meet from 8AM to 5PM five days per week, and sometimes on a Saturday when holidays are in the mix.
After the course, we provide online support that helps students prep for state exams. A benefit of the BTC course is we, also, provide an overview of wood destroying organism inspections and WSDA licensing options.
A short video, descriptive of the Bellingham Technical College state approved course, is available below.
In the past couple of years, demand for the course has been strong, and we are attracting students from around the state. We try to keep classes of a reasonable size, not exceeding a dozen students. This class, as I write this post in December, is half full at this point, so space could be tight. If you are interested in enrolling, don't hesistate to do so.
