about our online coursework
High Performance Contractors are invited to subscribe to our online learning management system and they continually strive for excellence. Subscribers also use our online system upload their own custom training and onboarding documents or courses for their employees.
We recommend that all companies encourage each employee to earn 10 units each calendar 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. HPIP provides full staff support to help contractors navigate the online system. Click here to view our course syllabus.

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 an approved insulation contractor in a particular area.
HPIP has created an online training platform free to all subscribed 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.
Subscribed contractors enjoy their own portal system in our network to track all their training, from all sources. Once you are set up, our system will automatically track your education, 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 all HPIP contractors!
