Big bucks for Grand Prize Drawing winners

The names of four InspectionWorld attendees will be drawn to share in the $10,000 grand prize as soon as the hotel room audit is completed. To participate, attendees were required to be registered for either the full or education conference and to pay for three or more nights in the ASHI room block at Bally’s
Las Vegas.

CE Hours Audit is Underway

ASHI staff is charged with conducting an audit of Continuing Education (CE) hours every January. A list of ACIs and Associates is randomly generated from our database, including at least one member from each chapter. The members on the list will be notified how to verify the hours they’ve claimed.
Inspectors who fail the audit are placed on administrative suspension.

Questions? Contact Sarah Walsh at 847-954-3180 or sarahw@ashi.org.

Attention Chapter Presidents

To ensure chapter information on file is current, we’re asking chapter presidents to fill out and return the Changes To Chapter Information form available on www.homeinspector.org, Members Only, Downloads and Forms.

Presidents are also asked to submit a current roster and to forward a copy of the chapter’s financial statement so ASHI can bind Directors and Officers Liability coverage for the chapter. Please include, at minimum, the amount of cash on hand and annual revenues and expenses.

Send all of the above to Russell Daniels  at russelld@ashi.org.

Chapter presidents also are encouraged to discuss the proposed governance Bylaw changes with members.
