The student will perform actual inspections while working on the finer points of applying the learned classroom knowledge out in the field.  Focus will be on the systematic home inspection procedure and report writing skills which includes the actual documentation of information in a report.  All inspections performed will be reviewed by the supervisor ensuring for completeness and accuracy.
