How to become an inspector?

To become an Inspector, you’ll need to demonstrate a mastery of the field in which you’ll be employed. Whether working in construction, insurance, or another industry, you’ll need to possess a high school diploma, strong attention to detail, and a deep understanding of the regulatory standards of your practice. Product or quality control Inspectors don’t often need a formal education to qualify for their position, and employers instead seek candidates with the relevant background and certifications. For example, Inspectors in the aviation industry must obtain an FAA Airframe and Powerplant license. Building or insurance Inspectors must have five years of field experience and successfully pass a state certification exam. Building Inspectors must also undergo a drug screen and background check to secure licensure.
