InterNACHI Teams Up with Infraspection To Offer Advanced IR Training

Denver, CO  November 12, 2015 -- The International Association of Certified Home Inspectors (InterNACHI) has teamed up with Infraspection Institute to provide advanced infrared thermography training for its members. Level I, Level II, and Level III Infraspection Institute Certified Infrared Thermographer® training courses are now part of special training packages available exclusively to InterNACHI members.

Our strategic alliance enables us to provide world class training for InterNACHI members who are seeking to expand the use of infrared thermography beyond home inspections. Infraspection Institute’s courses are a perfect next step for those seeking advanced training in thermography.”
Since 2008, InterNACHI has offered it members thermographic training courses geared toward the home inspection industry. Infraspection Institute Certified Infrared Thermographer® training courses enable InterNACHI members to expand their knowledge and develop new skill sets that can provide new business opportunities and revenue streams.
The past few years have seen tremendous growth in the use of thermography for building inspections.

The income potential for thermographers is significant. Depending upon services offered and rate structure, a single thermographer is capable of generating $250,000 per year in revenue. This potential can be influenced by a number of factors including one’s experience and level of certification.
Compliant with ISO and ASNT requirements, Infraspection Institute Certified Infrared Thermographer® courses cover the application of thermal imaging for P/PM, Condition Assessment, Condition Monitoring, Quality Assurance, Forensic Investigations, and Building Sciences. Taught by highly-experienced certified thermographers, courses cover infrared theory, heat transfer concepts, equipment operation and selection, standards compliance, image analysis, and report generation.
Jim Seffrin, Director of Infraspection Institute, adds, “We are very pleased to expand our relationship with InterNACHI. Our strategic alliance is intended to help InterNACHI members expand their businesses and increase revenue and profits We look forward to helping the members unlock the full potential of their thermal imagers.”
