InterNACHI

Welcome to InterNACHI's Ethics Obstacle Course

 
This course is an open book test of your knowledge and understanding of InterNACHI's Code of Ethics (bottom of every page of this course). Its purpose is to encourage our members to read and understand the Code of Ethics.
 
The course is free and open to all (you need not be a member) There is no registration necessary.
 
There is no scoring. You either cross the finish line or you don't. Reaching the finish line proves you have successfully completed the Ethics Obstacle Course.
 
There is no time limit. Take your time.
 
There is no limit to the number of times you can attempt the obstacle course. Take it as often as you like.
 
To begin simply go thru the obstacle course answering the hypothetical questions as best as you can. If you answer incorrectly, you will be moved back one question and will have to answer it again until you get it right. Answering some questions incorrectly may move you back several questions. You can reference InterNACHI's Code of Ethics at any time during the course by scrolling down.
 
Everyone is welcome to take the free online Ethics Obstacle Course.
 
The sole purpose of the obstacle course is to encourage members to read and understand InterNACHI's Code of Ethics. We understand that a scored ethics quiz is silly as an unethical inspector wouldn't answer the questions honestly anyway, but rather answer the questions in order to pass.
