WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
Everblue Customers Achieve Their Career Goals
"This course was extremely useful. I would much rather watch an explanatory video about the IECC code requirements than to read a dense, technical guidebook. The instructor knew what he was talking about and put the concepts into practical terms that I could use on the job."
Greg Framingham
WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
Everblue Customers Achieve Their Career Goals
"I've been working in the construction industry for almost 10 years, and I thought I knew everything, but I learned a lot from this course. Some of the information about the building envelope was review, but I was really interested in the topics about home performance alternatives and code compliance. This training should be required for anyone working in the residential home building industry."
Pete Moss
WHAT OUR CLIENTS HAVE TO SAY
Everblue Customers Achieve Their Career Goals
"Not only does this course teach you what's required for code compliance, but it teaches you the "why" of what you're doing. Sub-contractors don't typically have to understand the building science behind their actions, but this course provides helpful context that's just good to know. If you want to be the best at your craft, you really should understand the context."
