Education and Training Testimonial


California Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD)

"I am writing this letter in appreciation of the training that IBTS has provided to the HCD field inspection staff. HCD's field staff consists of 52 inspectors, investigators and supervisors that certify manufactured home installations , alterations and perform investigations of licensed dealers and salespersons.

The IBTS training consisted of a comprehensive two-day training course providing insight into the Federal laws, regulations and construction standards for manufactured homes that was very well received by all in attendance. I appreciate and thank you for the professionalism and technical expertise you brought to this training, and hope that we can continue to work together in future projects."

"I would like to take this opportunity to express our satisfaction with delivery of customized International Residential Code 2003 training on October 27 and 28, 2005 for our Code Services Staff. The subject matter was very appropriate along with organized handouts and electrical/plumbing trade displays. The instructors were very helpful to answer the specific questions from all participants. Mr. Paul Hancher did an excellent job in helping participants understand basic electrical and plumbing devices & fixtures and underlying principles for their operation. Mr. William King did a great job in helping participants understand basic structural principles and building planning parameters. The codes staff has expressed desire to continue participation in this type of training in future. To summarize, I will conclude to say 'JOB WELL DONE!'"

Again, I would like to personally thank you and IBTS for helping us exceed our development expectations."
