What is InspectCE?
InspectCE is a free continuing education tracker built for home inspectors in the United States. In 2026, inspectors juggle more CE than ever. States keep adding licensing rules. ASHI wants 20 credits a year. InterNACHI wants 24 hours. On top of that, thermal imaging courses, drone roof inspection training, and radon or mold certifications each come with their own hour requirements. InspectCE puts all of it on one screen. Log hours by category, track renewal dates for your state license and your association membership, and get push reminders before anything expires. The app covers all 50 US states plus DC and runs natively on iPhone and Android. The free plan includes unlimited CE logging for one license. A Pro plan adds unlimited licenses, PDF export, certificate storage, and extra reminders. No more spreadsheets, no more truck folders, no more guessing.
Sound familiar?
Three logins, zero clarity
Your ASHI credits are on one portal. Your InterNACHI hours are on another. Your state board tracks nothing for you. Radon and mold certs live in your email somewhere. Good luck piecing it all together at renewal time.
Annual, biennial, or both?
Your state license renews every two years. ASHI wants credits every year. Your WDI certification has its own cycle. One slips through the cracks, and an agent calls asking for your current license number while you are on a roof.
Specialty hours are a maze
You added radon testing last year. Now you want to offer mold inspections and sewer scopes. Each specialty has its own CE hours, its own provider, and its own renewal date. Tracking them on paper stopped working two certifications ago.

InspectCE handles the tracking. You handle the inspections.

InspectCE vs other ways to track CE hours
Most home inspectors track hours with spreadsheets, paper, or ASHI/InterNACHI dashboards. Here is how InspectCE compares.

What home inspectors are saying
“I run five inspections a week by myself. Between ASHI credits and my Texas state hours, I used to lose track every cycle. Now I log a course on the drive home and the app tells me exactly what I still need.”
Marcus T.
Solo Home Inspector, TX
“I got my thermal imaging cert last year and added radon this spring. Each one has different CE rules. InspectCE keeps my state license, my InterNACHI membership, and both specialty certs in one place. Saved me from a lapsed radon renewal I did not even see coming.”
Jennifer W.
Multi-Service Inspector, NC
“I passed the NHIE eight months ago and had no clue how CE worked. My mentor told me to download InspectCE. It showed me exactly what Maryland requires, how many hours I need each cycle, and when my first renewal hits. Wish I had it on day one.”

Common questions about home inspector CE tracking
Does InspectCE track ASHI and InterNACHI CE?
Yes. InspectCE lets you log CE hours from any source, including ASHI courses, InterNACHI courses, ICC training, and third-party providers like McKissock or AHIT. You tag each entry with the provider and the category. The app keeps a running total so you can see your ASHI credits, your InterNACHI hours, and your state-required hours all on one screen. It works alongside your association memberships, not in place of them.
Can I log specialty certifications like radon, mold, or WDI?
Yes. Many inspectors add ancillary services like radon testing, mold inspection, wood-destroying insect (WDI) inspections, sewer scopes, or pool and spa inspections. Each one comes with its own CE requirements. InspectCE lets you log those hours by category, set separate renewal dates, and get reminders before each certification expires. Pro users can track unlimited certifications.
Does it cover state and association requirements separately?
Yes. Your state license and your ASHI or InterNACHI membership often have different hour totals, different renewal dates, and different topic rules. InspectCE tracks them as separate items so you always know which one needs attention. For example, your state may require 24 hours every two years while ASHI wants 20 credits every year. The app shows both countdowns side by side.
How many CE hours do home inspectors need in 2026?
It depends on your state and your association. Maryland requires 30 hours every two years, one of the highest. Texas requires 32 hours per year. Illinois requires 12 hours per year. Some states also require specific topics like report writing or structural systems. On top of state hours, ASHI requires 20 credits per year and InterNACHI requires 24 hours per year. Visit the state requirements page for your exact breakdown.
What happens if my home inspector license expires?
You cannot perform inspections with an expired license. Agents stop sending referrals. Buyers move on to the next name on the list. Most states offer a grace period with a late fee, but after that window closes you may face reinstatement exams, extra CE hours, and higher fees. Some states require you to start the licensing process over. The simplest fix is to track your expiry date and renew before it hits.
Frequently Asked Questions
My state does not require a license. Do I still need CE?
About 15 states have no formal licensing. But if you hold an InterNACHI CPI or ASHI ACI, your association still requires CE hours to keep that credential active. InspectCE tracks voluntary certifications the same way it tracks state licenses.
Can I track thermal imaging or drone inspection training?
Yes. Log any specialty course, including thermal imaging, drone roof inspections, energy audits, or smart home systems. Tag it with the provider and category so you can see exactly which skill areas you have covered.
Does InspectCE count report writing CE hours?
Some states require report writing as a specific CE topic. InspectCE lets you tag hours by category, so you can separate report writing from structural, electrical, plumbing, or other topics your state or association requires.
Can I track licenses in more than one state?
The free plan covers one license. Pro ($4.99/mo) gives you unlimited. That is helpful if you inspect in two states or carry separate radon, mold, WDI, or pest certifications alongside your home inspection license.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Your data lives in a private database with row-level security. Nobody sees your records but you. All connections are encrypted.
Will this help me grow my inspection business?
Inspectors who add ancillary services like radon, mold, or sewer scopes can charge more per job. InspectCE helps you track the CE hours needed for each new certification so you can add services without letting any credential lapse.
