Extremely helpful tool
I found the SI Certs Program an extremely helpful tool in obtaining my ICC B2 Commercial Building Inspector Certification. Completing the coursework and practice exams gave me the confidence I needed to pass this difficult exam.

I completed the Commercial Building Inspector course and also passed my ICC exam today. It was a nightmare and I couldn’t have done it without your program and Tom’s coaching help! I think Fireproofing is next.

Good morning, Gabe.
Could you please send me a certificate for my B2 course? I passed my B2 exam.
Thx in advance.

United StatesTheir customer support is unbelievable!
This app is perfect and their customer support is unbelievable! All I had to do was follow the class, step by step, and I passed all 3 tests (first try) to become a reinforced concrete inspector. I was extremely nervous about the plans-reading test, but I passed that as well.
I was especially impressed with how helpful these guys are when I had questions. They always respond within a day or two and answer all my questions, even after my paid class had ended. I am now taking their masonry class and so far it is equally impressive. I highly recommend these classes.

Hey Gabe, I just called you to tell you I finally passed this test! You know how hard this has been for me and what I've gone through, particularly since English isn't my first language. I am extremely grateful for everything you have done. There's no way I would have passed this test without you. If you're ever in Washington and need a place to stay let me know. Now on to PT with SI Certs.

Mill Creek, WAI am a structural engineer by profession. Thank you for this training.
The training has really saved me a lot of time. I am a civil engineer with a structural emphasis and your material was very good and accurate. The plan reading part was very helpful to me to prepare for this test. Now that I've passed Reinforced Concrete with you, I'm doing your PT course. Believe me this has saved me a tremendous amount of time.

This certification requires no prior work experience or other certifications. It demonstrates an understanding of the International Building Code for those currently working in a building department, or seeking to work for one.
For special inspectors, it is often acceptable when the local jurisdiction requires some demonstration of wood inspection qualification, since the International Building Code (IBC) addresses wood construction code requirements in-depth.
The ICC B2 Commercial Building Inspector certification belongs in the Commercial Inspection Suite, also expressed as the C5 Commercial Combination designation – inclusive of Commercial Building, Commercial Mechanical, Commercial Electrical, and Commercial Plumbing certifications.
Frankly, this course is amazing and one-of-a-kind. It walks a user through understanding the vast and complex IBC. With many examples, visuals, and practice, one can grasp the enormity of this code reference and the depth to which it reaches in so many areas of the construction process.
We’ll get you ready for the test with our 45 hours of online instruction and practice. I’m also one click away from any coaching you may need!
