"Field Inspection Event" means an examination and evaluation of the exterior and interior components of an actual residential real property conducted by a candidate for a home inspection license under the supervision of a licensed home inspector with at least 5 years of experience.

To complete the 5 Field Inspection Events required by the state, contact one of InterNACHI's approved Illinois-licensed home inspectors who are qualified to supervise your 5 Field Inspection Events. According to the state, only one inspection event can be completed per day. The supervisor inspectors are listed below. 

Please use our list of required and qualified inspectors below. The 5 Field Inspection Events are required as part of your application process for the state and must be completed before receiving your final transcript. You cannot take the state exam until the field events are completed and you have your transcript. The supervising inspectors may have additional requirements or fees for the training and supervision, so be sure to ask.

Interested in becoming a qualified supervising inspector? Email the InterNACHI® Education Team.

Your supervising home inspector is required to send to InterNACHI® (education@internachi.org) proof of performing 5 supervised Field Inspection Events using the "5 Field Inspection Events" form.  

This step is critical. Without sending proof of your 5 field inspection events to InterNACHI®, we can not confirm your licensing data with the state.

Once your instructor has submitted your 5 field inspection reports form, email the InterNACHI® Education Team at education@internachi.org and request a final transcript. This transcript document is required to be attached to the application that you will send to the state.
