Note:  

30 C.E. Credits of acceptable Continuing Education Hours (CE Hours) per year are required to maintain Full OntarioACHI Membership of which at least 10 C.E. Credits must be obtained from Activity A and/or B.

Excess C.E. Credits may be carried over into the following year but only one carry over per course.

Example: If you take a 70 hour course in building science this year, this would be worth 70 C.E. Credits, 40 Credits would carry over into the next year (satisfying the CE requirements for next year) but not into the following year. All continuing education must be related to the inspection, construction, or design of buildings and related systems.  It is the members responsibility to maintain documented proof of completed CE Hours in the event of an audit by OntarioACHI.

 
Continuing Education claimed must be submitted to the membership committee at year end.
