Organization Structure
Established in 1976, CREIA is a non-profit trade association (headquartered in Palm Springs, CA), with chapters located throughout the state. CREIA is a member-driven, hands-on organization that provides educational programming and on-going opportunities for its members to interact at both local and state-wide CREIA meetings and events. CREIA also provides many opportunities for its members to be involved in the governing of the association.
A Master CREIA Inspector (MCI) is the highest rating that can be obtained through CREIA. This designation is only given to those inspectors that have obtained over 100 hours of additional training, performed over 1000 inspections, and have been tested for knowledge above the already high standards set for CCI members of CREIA.
