Due to the competitive nature of our industry it is obvious that employers are hiring individuals with the credentials to fill more than one position. Additional certifications provide inspectors with means to show potential employers they are highly skilled and will provide strength to the company with their job performance. More certifications show you have more knowledge and are more valuable, which leads to better pay. These courses are also recognized by AWS for continuing education hours for renewal of CWI and SCWI.
