Home Inspection Online CE Courses

PTS has designed several courses to provide Home Inspectors with the necessary continuing education credits that are needed within their states to meet established licensing requirements. As a result of a growing need for online courses of instruction, PTS has decided to release their course offerings in an online format as well as a classroom format.

There are currently courses covering: Report Writing, Structures, and Electrical. Each course allows you to study at your own pace and order each module as required.

The modules are designed to be completed one at a time. These modules use the same text book that we utilize in our classrooms. Students may contact us any time to get help with their studies at no extra charge. On-line exams are available to make study at home even more convenient. Choose PTS, and you will receive the best of convenience and excellence.

You can study at your own pace with PTS and control your payment, purchasing each module as needed. At any time you can transfer into one of our classroom courses and receive credit towards your tuition!
