[24 Del.C. § 4108(d)]
3.1 All applications submitted pursuant to the grandfather provision set forth in 24 Del.C. § 4108(d) shall be received by the Board on or before November 4, 2013. Only complete applications will be considered by the Board. Applications which are not received on or before November 4, 2013 shall not be eligible for licensure pursuant to the grandfather provision.
3.2 An applicant may qualify for the grandfather provision by either one of the following methods:
3.3 An application submitted pursuant to the grandfather provision must also include evidence in a form satisfactory to the Board that the applicant, or the applicant's employer, carries errors and omissions insurance in an amount equal to or greater than $50,000 and liability insurance in an amount equal to or greater than $250,000. Evidence shall include a notarized certificate of insurance submitted to the Board by the insurance carrier.
3.4 Trainee applicants may acquire supervised experience, as documented on a Board approved form, during the time period after the date of enactment of the statute until the deadline for submission of grandfather applications. However, that supervised experience shall satisfy the licensure requirements only if the supervisor becomes licensed under the grandfather provision within three months after making application.
3.5 A trainee will be permitted to obtain one half credit for any unsupervised home inspections performed prior to November 4, 2013 so long as the application is submitted on or before November 4, 2013. In other words, a trainee will receive one credit for every two unsupervised inspections performed prior to November 4, 2013. The trainee shall indicate any such inspections on their home inspection experience log.
