I completed the Home Inspection Certification program with Carson Dunlop and I couldn't be happier with the experience. If you are serious about becoming a professional home inspector, this program is the absolute best investment you can make in your career. The reputation of Carson Dunlop in the industry is well-deserved; they are the gold standard for home inspection education. I would like to give a special shout out to Ahmed Awan, he helped me set everything up.
Thank you to everyone!
From the Admin department and the training department are excellent! The course material itself was extensive and excellent! The wealth of knowledge is beyond belief! The name and reputation of Carson & Dunlop and beyond reproach! I would encourage anyone interested in Home Inspection not only to get their certification through them but also use Carson & Dunlop Home Inspectors!
I recently completed the Carson Dunlop Home Inspection program and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The course material was thorough, well-organized, and practical, giving me the knowledge and confidence I need to move into this career. The support from the education team was excellent — they were always quick to respond and genuinely invested in my success. I really appreciate the extra resources and graduate perks as well, which make starting out feel a lot less overwhelming. I’d highly recommend Carson Dunlop to anyone serious about becoming a professional home inspector.
To give a little background, I spent the last 10+ doing work ranging from small handyman tasks to complete renos and a couple house guts, so I've had at least some experience with most of the topics covered. I'm just over half-way through the course material, and I've been aiming to complete the program in 3 months total. It's a lot of ground to cover; I wouldn't plan on this time frame unless its your full-time occupation. It could be just my age or the fact that I haven't been in school for a LONG time, but I found that the suggested timeframes for each Session were on the light side in terms of hours of work. I often spend 1.5 to 2 times the amount of time suggested. To be fair, they do suggest that you should take more time if you need it. There are a few Sessions that I've completed in less than the suggested time.
I've found the course material in-depth and comprehensive in the Sessions that I've completed to date, the practice reporting is a valuable add-on, the Case Studies are fairly quick but some were a challenge. The online webinars are 3 hours at a time, which occasionally felt a bit long. Tutor feedback has been great; quick, thorough and relayed in a very clear manner. Any feedback I have provided has been addressed without fail, and the
Student Services and Support Coordinator (Ariel) has also quickly reported back on progress/completion of suggestions. I did have some trouble with the 3rd party company that runs the proctoring of the mid-terms and finals, but again it was addressed immediately and resolved in a very professional manner by Ariel.
I really have had a very positive experience and would definitely recommend Carson-Dunlop as an excellent provider of education in the field of home inspections. Without the 3rd party problem (which wasn't really Carson-Dunlop's fault), 5-stars.
I recently completed the Home Inspection program at Carson Dunlop, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. The course material was clear, comprehensive, and truly prepared me for the field. The instructors and support team were knowledgeable and always ready to help whenever I had questions. Thanks to Carson Dunlop, I successfully passed the program and received my home inspector license.
My name is Dilbag Singh, and I’ve now launched my business, Kahlon Private Ltd., based in Red Deer, Alberta. I highly recommend Carson Dunlop to anyone looking to build a solid foundation in home inspection.
I would like to say that the experience with Carson Dunlop, taking the home inspection certification training course has been the best thing that's ever happened to me, it hasn't been easy , there is a lot of data but it's making me into the best inspector that I could possibly be. I'm on my 9 th module and should be done by the end of 2024 and ready to start my new career. If you're looking to become a home inspector who really knows what they're doing and has the confidence to go out and start your own business or work for someone else, Carson Dunlop is the best home inspection training course there is, in North America and I highly recommend working with them to give you all the help you need, sincerely Mr Russell James Fleet
