certificate code: 7359
certificate name: HOME INSPECTION
description: In conjunction with Seneca College and Carson Dunlop and Associates, and in cooperation with the Ontario Association of Home Inspectors (OAHI), Centennial offers a 10-course Home Inspection program that incorporates the standards of practice of the American Society of Home Inspectors/Canadian Association of Home and Property Inspectors. Standards of practice are the minimum and uniform standards for private, fee-paid home inspectors. This certificate was created to help you acquire the knowledge and professional communication skills you need to succeed in this growing industry. Throughout the program you will focus on obtaining a very practical knowledge of the performance of the systems and components of a house. Once you successfully complete this program, you will have met the requirements for the Registered Home Inspector designation, offered by the Ontario Association of Home Inspectors (OAHI).

To attain this designation you must:
• apply for membership with the OAHI;
• complete a number of fee-paid inspections (per OAHI bylaws and regulations); and
• attend home inspection-related practical seminars or complete CAHI or ASHI exams to receive baseline accreditation.

For full details, please contact the OAHI at 1-888-744-6244 or visit the OAHI website at (www.oahi.com). Course material is approximately $230 per course in addition to the tuition amount. Purchase materials directly from Andrew Dowd at Carson Dunlop and Associates, 1-800-268-7070, ext. 251.
