testimonials
“HPIP has been a great partner to work with over the last few years. They have worked very closely with our instructors and students to get them trained and approved in the various levels of insulation. Through this partnership, our students have been able to gain additional skills to help them secure a job upon graduation from Long Beach Job Corps.”
Jerry Henry, Long Beach Job Corps Career Technical Training Manager
“After having my first group of students to complete the updated HPIP Intermediate training, I wanted to let you know how pleased I am with the program, especially during a time of distance learning. The students were able to easily access and navigate the training. By having access to both the recorded videos and the presentations, I was able to deliver them as well as allowing the students to review the material in a self-study fashion. When reaching out to local insulation installation companies to build relationships, I’ve been met with good reception regarding future employment opportunities. I had one manager already ask me to send him 5 students to hire!”
Gary Brown, Whitney M. Young Jr. Job Corps Construction Foundations Instructor
