hausdok Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Jan 6, 2010/DES PLAINES, Ill. (Business Wire) The American Society of Home Inspectors (ASHI) has been approved by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA) as a recognized accrediting association for its profession-leading Certified Inspector Program. ASHI is now the only accredited home inspection association whose full members have completed a recognized third-party certification process. All current, full ASHI members have met the requirements for this new certification. ââ¬ÅThe accreditation and certification of ASHIââ¬â¢s processes by a recognized third party is an affirmation of the status we hold in the home inspection profession,â⬠Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlieb Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Good or bad, I am now certified...able.[:-wiltel] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 Yeah, me too. I'm not sure I want to hang around with uncertified folks.......t'ain't civilized. Enough of the news, now for the weather....... It is something that tends to separate the organization from the other organizations. That's a good thing, I guess. What I want to know, though, is who's certifying the certifying body, and who are the certifiers that anointed the certifying body that's certifying the organization that's certifying ASHI? I mean, how far back does this go? I don't want no charlatans or usurpers certifying nobody no how. How can we know the original certifiers were worthy and righteous? The business of the business of professional society management is curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terence McCann Posted January 7, 2010 Report Share Posted January 7, 2010 What I want to know, though, is who's certifying the certifying body Me. and who are the certifiers that anointed the certifying body that's certifying the organization that's certifying ASHI? Me... again And if ye put thy hand on the television screen, and send in $274.00 (PayBuddy accepted) ye too shall be certified. As an added incentive we have put this on easy pay. Act now!

Les Posted January 8, 2010 Report Share Posted January 8, 2010 This will likely change the life of several inspectors. Only the Shadow knows! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin Tyme Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 Soooo, if Jeff's post above is true and Nicky's aka P.T., it would stand to reason that the acronym NCCA is for Nicky's Club of Circus Acts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herb Scott Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Perhaps, as home inspectors we have become a bit too skeptical. I say two thumbs up to ASHI. I’m even more proud to be a “Certified Member†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Oh, I agree Herb, it's just funnin' in here. What slides under the table is how many folks at ASHI (wherein my membership # is 6874) have been hanging around for so long they've never passed through any of the hoops that new members, i.e., the real "certified" folks, have had to jump through. What it does mean is we (ASHI) have a supportable entry requirement. The other organizations don't. Nicky's favorite lie can now be credibly dismissed, which is a good thing.

Bob White Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Every time I see the heading for this topic, I think, "What's the NCAA got to do with home inspection? And, "Will this help or hurt the SEC?" I know. I need to crawl under someone's house or something.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Bob, I am an avid Michigan State Spartan fan and they are the premier NCAA basketball team. I am also an ASHI inspector, therefore all ASHI members are now NCAA Michigan State Spartan fans. Makes sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bain Posted January 15, 2010 Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 Bob, I am an avid Michigan State Spartan fan and they are the premier NCAA basketball team. Ummm, perhaps . . . if you don't include the KY Wildcats in your calculations. When this thread was initiated, I was tempted to ask why we were talking about college athletics on a HI board, but figured no one would realize I was joking.
