Applicants for home inspector are required to complete education prior to applying for licensure. Please review the educational requirement prior to application. Applications for renewal or initial licensure must be submitted no later than one week prior to the board meeting date. Applications accepted after this date will be considered at the next scheduled board meeting.
Applicants for licensure as a home inspector must complete and pass a board-approved, pre-licensing training course that is administered by a board-approved provider in accordance with 831 KAR 2:040
All pre-licensing providers must have prior approval by the board. Any educator not listed on this site does not have such approval.
Pursuant to 831 KAR 2:040 Section 2, all board-approved pre-licensing training courses must be taught face-to-face. However, during the state of emergency due to the Covid-19 pandemic, virtual pre-licensing training courses were allowed. Though the state of emergency has been lifted, the Board voted at its March 2022 meeting to allow the continuation of virtual pre-licensing training courses until further action of the Board. Accordingly, virtual pre-licensing training courses are currently allowed.
The following continuing education courses be completed face-to-face: Kentucky Law, and Report Writing. All other continuing education courses may be completed online.
