Online Training

Only HPIP Certified Contractors have the opportunity to use our online learning management system for online certification. Contractors can use our online system to earn their required continuing education units, or to upload training materials for their company’s employees. Starting in February 2019, HPIP will be hosting and uploading monthly informational webinars to our online training platform. These webinars are for the benefit of our certified contractors, hosted by HPIP’s esteemed board, to provide information that will attribute to their success in the insulation industry.

Certified contractors must continually earn 10 units each renewal year, either through the HPIP Online Course Library or another accredited source such as qualifying hands-on training events or other external accredited online courses. CEUs must be verified and documented in the contractor’s online profile. The online platform automatically tracks requirements and reminds contractors when CEUs are due. HPIP provides full staff support to help contractors navigate the online system and upload external CEUs earned.

Certified HPIP contractors are featured on the Locate a High Performance Contractor Map on the HPIP website. This map is published for builders, homeowners, and architects to refer to when looking for a certified insulation contractor in a particular area. 

HPIP has created an online training platform free to all certified contractors. This platform includes many company specific custom options, coursework on everything from basics to advanced insulation knowledge, webinars, and more. We’ll keep your crews up to speed between live events. 

Certified contractors enjoy their own portal system in our network to track all their training, from all sources. Once initially certified, our system will automatically track CEUs, and send reminders when training is due. This type of system would cost thousands for a contractor to set up and maintain. It is free to HPIP member contractors!
