Mentoring Session (Optional)
It has been our experience that students that have their own tools to practice for the field exams have had a much higher success rate. Because these are expensive tools and that is not always possible the next best thing is Mentoring. Mentoring sessions can be schedule as one on one or two on one session with an instructor where the students get to work directly with the tools during four-hour blocks. These are available on a regular basis and are scheduled upon request.
- Hands on, low ratio session where the student can go step-by-step through BPI or RESNET field testing procedures
- Session can be spent targeting specific areas that the student wants/needs more practice.
FEE: $500.00 per four hour session (3 student maximum)
