Virgil,
The company I work for when I do inspections is looking for inspectors in areas that they don't cover right now. If you're interested, E-mail me & I'll tell you who to get in touch with. They have the study guides available for you to use.
I make the disparaging comments about licensing in WV because it was bungled for so long. Maybe now that we finally have a new State Fire Marshall, things will change for the better, though I seriously doubt it. Remember, your $50 a year goes towards buying new cars & other things for the Fire Marshall, very little goes towards enforcement.
By the way, we almost had a state law requireing that electrical inspectors hold a masters license and pass a test. Imagine that, a grandfatheed master electrician who is currently doing inspections could have become a grandfathered inspector. Our governor wisely (inside joke) vetoed it.
Keep up the good work.
Tom
