Inspector Certification Applications and Forms

Spanish     Malay

Forms needed for every application:

Each form represents a requirement of both your initial application and every subsequent renewal application.

  • ACCT Eye Exam Form- This form is to show that you meet the vision requirement of this program. We do require 20/30 vision with or without correction. We also have you test for colorblindness. Although this will not keep you from receiving a certification, we do require a letter with your inspection plan should there need to be any alterations or adaptations to your inspection process. The eye exam must be within 6 months of application submission.

  • Inspector Certification Supervisor Attestation- If you are an inspector that is supervised, you and your Supervisor will be required to fill out this form. It acts as a supervisor's reference to your abilities as an inspector. This form requires the applicant's, supervisor's, and witness's signature. This form no longer requires a notary.
  • Inspector Certification Self-Supervised/Owner Attestation-If you are not supervised by another individual or the owner of the company, you are required to fill out this form. This is a reference to your abilities as an inspector and shall be supported by your portfolio. This form requires the applicant's and a witness's signature. This form no longer requires a notary.
  • Inspector Certification Portfolio- Your inspector portfolio shall be in THIS format, or if you are using a Practitioner Portfolio, you shall include an Inspection tab that has a column for the Inspection date, Inspection location, whether it was In-House or Vended, description of inspection, name of the supervisor. We review your training and CEUs as well, so please make sure your portfolio is up-to-date when you submit it.
  • Certificate of Insurance- Your Certificate of Insurance shall be dated within 30 days of submitting your application or renewal and shall have ACCT listed as the Certificate Holder in the bottom left corner. A certificate is only valid when accompanied by proof of insurance. A certification is considered void should the inspector have a lapse in insurance or be found without insurance.

Applications and Registrations

Initial Application- This application is what you fill out if you are applying for the first time to the program.

4-Year Renewal Application- Every four years, you are required to test to renew your certification. You will need to submit all the forms above, including the inspection and CEU requirements for your certification. These testing events happen periodically throughout the year in a virtual on-site option.
