New Solutions for ICPI Installer Courses

In response to the continued social distancing requirements of the pandemic, ICPI has developed two solutions to better enable course sponsors to continue offering the Concrete Paver Installer course and related specialist courses:

1.      Hybrid Courses – In these courses, the sponsor provides a virtual meeting platform such as Zoom and hires an authorized instructor to teach the course live on that virtual platform. Students take the exam using ProctorU, a virtual proctored testing service. Sponsors receive a rebate of $125 per student for all courses except PICP Specialist, which is $75 per student.

2.      Virtual Courses – Course sponsors may opt to receive a discount code from ICPI to share with their customers. Individuals who are not ICPI members receive a discount of $40 off the price of an online course (except for PICP Specialist, which is $34) and sponsors receive a referral fee of $40 for each code used to purchase a course (except for PICP Specialist, which is $34). ICPI members should enter the discount code but will receive their normal discount on the course.

You can choose one or both options to best suit your needs and the needs of your customers. To help you determine which option will work best for you, the chart below gives more details:
