Nice idea, Joe- especially if you take the term "inspect" broadly.
There is an attitude held by some that "inspector" is some sort of "rank" above "electrician." This is unfortunate, as there are separate skills for each trade. This misunderstanding can only become worse as the "inspector" racket both expands into the private sector (home inspections) and begins to get filled with 'instant inspectors;' that is, graduates of 'inspection technology' curriculae, who have never worked in any trade.
I think even the most committed contractor can beneift from learning how to systematically inspect a job.....most "walk-throughs" are so cursory as to be worthless!
There is also the issue of today's sparky planning ahead for the time when he is no longer up to the physical demands of the job.
Count me in..since I'm already "committed," I might as well be "certified" as well :-)
