The process of becoming a licensed home inspector is a bit different in Wisconsin than in most other states.
To become a home inspector in the state of Wisconsin, you must complete the following steps:
- Complete 40 hours of education with a recognized continuing education provider. The Inspection Certification Associates online home inspection training course will completely fulfill this requirement and is approved by the National Council on Continuing Education and Training.
- Take and pass the Wisconsin Home Inspection Statutes & Rules Exam. This exam contains 50 questions and can be completed online.
- Pass the National Home Inspectors Exam, which our home inspection training course fully prepares you for. We include a 200 page online study guide and 700 practice questions specific to the National Home Inspectors Exam.
