The Answer…?” Plumbing 101, Foundation Defects, Alternative Energy Sources, Effective Report Writing…”
You know the Question, right? Of course you do! It’s… “What Educational Sessions are being presented at InspectionWorld 2005?”
Of course, you may have been thrown off a little by the answers, as anyone who knows anything about InspectionWorld, or who has, in fact, attended in the past knows that there are way more than four topics presented over the course of the three-day event! Why, the answers alone could fill up an entire Jeopardy Board!
InspectionWorld 2005 will host four different educational tracks comprised of over 25 unique topics, spanning almost 60 hours of conference programming. The four tracks, Back to Basics, Commercial & Special Topics, Advanced Technical, and Business Development & Service were developed to ensure that anyone attending InspectionWorld—regardless of level of experience or current education needs, could walk away with a wealth of knowledge to assist in the enhancement of their home inspection business.
This year, headquarters received a phenomenal number of proposals for educational sessions, and, by working with the Education Committee, was able to review and select the best programs to suit the educational needs of InspectionWorld attendees. Here’s a quick-peek at what will be waiting for you in Austin—track-by-track:
