Applicants meeting the education, testing and experience requirements, and who have passed a criminal background check, may obtain a license as a building, electrical, plumbing, fire protection or elevator Inspector or Subcode Official, a Construction Official, or Housing Inspector.
To maintain his/her license, a licensee is required to complete, 15, 20 or 25 hours of technical and administrative training through continuing education.
