Sheridan Recognition of Achievement
and OAHI Accreditation
Sheridan Recognition of Achievement
For many people, buying or selling a home is the biggest personal transaction they’ll ever make.
Sheridan, in partnership with Carson Dunlop and Associates, is offering the Home Inspection Training Program.
This program incorporates the Standards of Practice of ASHI/CAHPI (American Society of Home Inspectors / Canadian Association of Home and Property Inspectors). The Standards of Practice define a minimum and uniform standard for private, fee-paid home inspectors. The Carson Dunlop and Associates program fully complies with ASHI curriculum and Standards of Practice. This program also conforms to the Professional Home/Property Inspector Occupational Standards developed by the Canadian Home Inspectors and Building Officials Steering Committee for National Standards (CHIBO).
Home inspections assist the home buyer/seller by providing information regarding the condition of the home prior to the sale. The systems and components of a home include roofing, structural, electrical, heating, air conditioning/ heat pumps, plumbing, insulation and the interior. This program has been designed to incorporate all of these components as well as the necessary communication skills and knowledge of professional practice needed to be successful in this growing industry.
