4 Steps to Becoming a Home Inspector in Nevada

PDH is an expert provider of professional development hours for home inspectors, contractors and construction supervisors. This course is designed for new inspectors and will allow you to apply as a Nevada Certified Master Inspector when you have completed the inspection log for Certified Master Inspectors. 
  2. Take the Nevada Original Inspector of Structures Exam. The ICA Online Home Inspector Certification Program delivers the knowledge you need to pass this Nevada specific exam.
  3. Observe 25 inspections with a licensed inspector: Observe at least 25 ride-along inspections with a licensed home inspector. Most new inspectors get paid for this work as on-the-job-training.
  4. Congratulations! Now you can start your own business or work as a home inspector. Your two-year renewal of an Inspector of Structures certificate must include 20 hours of approved continuing education (three hours of safety, two hours of 645D Nevada law and 15 hours in general inspector courses).
