Best Answer

The phrase "to be grandfathered" or "to be grandfathered in" means to be permitted to continue performing an activity or holding a position without being required to meet requirements that were put in place after you began doing that activity or holding that position.

For example, if you have been a framis inspector for 20 years, and new requirements have just been put in place that all framis inspectors must hold a graduate degree in framis assessment, the regulation may include a provision that those who have been framis inspectors for 8 or more years do not need to have that graduate degree. Then you can continue to be a framis inspector even though you don't have a college degree at all. That is called "being grandfathered in."
