    "Since I became BPI certified, using the CleanEdison course, I have been able to secure a job and end my 9 months of unemployment. After company downsizing left me with no job last year, I pursued every position I saw available. However, I wasnt able to secure one until I received certification as a Building Analyst. Now I have a new career and new life. Thank you!"

    "CleanEdison's class was phenomenal. John Mitchell has an extraordinary amount of knowledge on the BPI system and really brought our class together. I passed the written exam and I'm still waiting for my field exam, but I'm totally confident I passed that too. Next step: BPI Envelope Specialist!"

    "I took the class in 2009. My instructor was very helpful, shared her knowledge and truly wanted everyone in the class to be successful. I only wish this program would come back to our state of Washington."

    "My experience with Clean Edison started with a search of the web for classes on BPI certification. I was impressed at the onset that Elliot answered the phone. Elliot was very helpful and did all he said he would. There were several schedule changes on your part, that was my only frustration. Bill who taught the class did a fine job. Tom who was the proctor for the field exam was first class. I plan on taking future classes for BPI and LEED certification with Clean Edison."

    "I have been a college professor for 10 years and I have observed many instructors leading lectures. The instructor was amazing, ranks among the best I have seen in my career. CleanEdison’s training techniques made me happy paying for the course – so few things nowadays deserve their pay. Thank you CleanEdison."
