Phil Godshall, your trainer…

...delivers the information in a positive and simplistic manner with some humour to make the day enjoyable. His vast classroom training and field experience brings the information to you for clear and practical implementation.  He has successfully trained hundreds of contractors and is available to answer your questions, even after the training.

There are many training providers/instructors available but all are not equal.  A trainer is required to have applicable field experience in the industry they train in and capable of teaching and relating that experience to the participants for their understanding and implementation into their field operations.  Many students have called me, confused and frustrated with their instructor.  Know who your instructor is going to be before training.

Now featuring a comprehensive vocabulary list, this updated new module brings together the expertise of industry and higher education in defining a topic of growing international importance: green building. Geared to entry-level craft workers or to anyone wishing to learn more about green building, this module provides fundamental instruction in the green environment, green construction practices, and green building rating systems. Presented in easy-to-understand terms and illustrations, Your Role in the Green Environment will better equip learners to make decisions regarding their personal impacts on the environment and will make them more aware of how to lessen their impacts in the built environment.
