NATIONAL HOME INSPECTOR EXAMINATION RESPONDS TO FALSE POST ON INTERNACHI MESSAGE BOARD
May 7, 2008, Palatine, IL – A recent post on the InterNACHI message board has proven false, according to Pearson VUE, Inc., psychometric contractor for the National Home Inspector Examination.
On April 10, 2008, a claim was made that a group of questions and answers was available from the actual National Home Inspector Examination. Later, a group of home inspection-related questions and answers were posted on the InterNACHI message board. After investigation, the material has proven to be from sources OTHER THAN the NHIE’s question and answer item bank.
The Examination Board of Professional Home Inspectors ensures that the NHIE is both valid and reliable, two qualities required for legal defensibility. Development, maintenance and administration – including security measures – adhere to accepted psychometric standards. Test takers can be confident that their score is reliable due to the test security measures EBPHI employs.
For further information about preparing the exam, please visit our website at www.homeinspectionexam.org.
How was it proven that the material was not from the NHIE? |
