If you have the desire to wear this patch and work in the Home Inspection service field you can't go wrong with Joe, Todd , Matt, and Colton. Their level of experience in the profession is obvious when you attend their classes. And once you have completed the classroom and hands-on portions of the training, they are still there for their students, to assist with setting up your business and helping you get started. I was looking for a way to work for myself and control my own destiny, and they have given me the tools and the confidence to make it happen. Read their website: everything they present
