Maryland's Most Affordable Path to a Home Inspector License
We're new to Maryland, and we're pricing like it — on purpose. As introductory pricing while we build our name in the state, A-Train tuition runs about half of what other approved Maryland schools charge for the same license outcome.
Maryland requires 72 hours of approved education — including in-person training — plus passing the NHIE and carrying $150,000 in general liability insurance. You'll complete your classroom work online at your own pace, then finish your hands-on training at our Maryland facility at 23600 Three Notch Rd, Hollywood, MD 20636, with Dan DeBoodt, an Air Force veteran and working inspector who leads all our in-person Maryland sessions.

Standard Package
$999
Value Package (opens the course store in a new tab) also available.
Veterans and active-duty personnel receive 15% off any package.
Affirm financing and in-house installment plans available.
Small Classes, Real Instruction
Because we're growing in Maryland, you won't be one of forty people in a hotel conference room. In-person sessions are small, hands-on, and taught by an inspector who does this work — which means your questions get answered on a real house, not a whiteboard.
Dan's an Air Force veteran himself — and veterans and active-duty students receive 15% off any A-Train package.
Rated 5.0 on Google
Students come to A-Train from every background and leave licensed — and telling others about it. Here's what a few of them said.
“I can't give this place enough credit for helping me get my license. If you have the pleasure of getting to deal with Blake directly consider yourself lucky. He was my main contact through everything and he just made it work. Need a test on a Sunday, done. 9pm and the app isn't working, fixed.”
— Robert M.
“Customer service while completing the online courses was unparalleled. Their attention to detail in creating the courses is exactly what you need to be successful in passing your state and national exams.”
— Jay U.
“Excellent instructors helping all the way through. They will take the time to go over any course lessons that you might feel you need improvement on. I would recommend this school to any up and coming home inspectors looking for a personalized learning experience.”
— Daniel T.

Modern Tools in the Field
Train on AI-Driven Inspection Software
During your in-person training, you'll train on Sherlock — AI-driven inspection software built for home inspectors, and our practicum training software partner. You learn to document a real inspection with modern software, not just a clipboard and a keyboard.
Speech-to-report
Speak your observations in full sentences and Sherlock turns them into professional inspector notes — in your own style, without typing.
Object detection
The software identifies components, hazards, and materials in what you capture, and highlights what matters.
Appliance intelligence
Photograph an appliance label and log its model, serial number, manufacture date, and recall history straight into the report.
