Join HITA
Home Inspectors of Tennessee is a state-wide non-profit organization focused on education specific to the conditions prevalent in TN and the southeastern United States. We offer 6+ hrs CE quarterly, all free with paid membership*.
EXCITING NEWS!! Beginning February of 2023, we are attempting to launch live, proctored satellite classes in at least 3 additional locations across the state. West TN will meet in Collierville, Mid-west will remain in Pleasant View as the broadcasting location, Mid-East will be in the Chattanooga area and East will be in the Knoxville area. We are hoping, by providing classes closer to our members, we will attract more of the 1000+ actively licensed inspectors in Tennessee.
The EXPO is held every 18 months, to allow our members to gain 16 HOURS of CE within their licensing period to help ensure state requirements are easily reached with live, interactive classes. Live education is much more likely to be retained over on-line. Nationally recognized presenters are retained to ensure HITA inspectors are known to be the best educated inspectors in our state.

IN ADDITION TO THE CLASSES, WE ARE HOSTING A SUPPORTING TRADES VENDORS FAIR. 
Our Affiliate members have been invited to participate in a two-day Vendor’s fair within the EXPO, so they might introduce HITA members to their product/service that might enable you to serve your clients to a higher degree. These Affiliate member’s support enables HITA to bring members the best education, well more than is required to fulfill the state’s requirements, at the lowest cost possible. We so appreciate our Affiliates!

HITA is kicking things off with a Welcome Reception Thursday night at 7:00pm in the event area. All HITA and Affiliate members can gather in a comfortable social setting with live music, hors d’oeuvres, cocktails, and non-alcoholic refreshments to get to know each other in a relaxed setting. HITA will provide 2 drink tickers per paid participant. There will also be a cash bar. 
Lunch will be catered by the venue both Friday and Saturday included for all paid participants. For a small additional fee, anyone that accompanied you to the EXPO may join you for all meals and social events.If you participated in the “mini-expo” we had at this venue this past November, you will have an idea of the approach we will be making, but on a much grander scale! We will also be scheduling a short social event after lunch both Friday and Saturday to give our members even more time to mingle.Are you or someone you know a supporting trade that would like to participate in our EXPO Vendors Fair?
