Great training class!

That was a great training class in Myrtle Beach. I like the way that the “not so fun” necessary stuff, like testing can be done on my own time and at my own pace. The stuff you can’t learn very well from just reading, like communicating with the clients and report writing, was covered thoroughly… Read more “Great training class!”

CFIU teaches you the information you need to succeed

Anthony Ruggieri Certified Flooring Inspector

I took many classes prior to CFI University courses. However, I believe I would have spent far less money and have made it farther in the industry if my initial courses were those of CFIU! Their courses teach you the information you need to succeed as an inspector and more importantly how to write a… Read more “CFIU teaches you the information you need to succeed”

CFIU Glass Tile Course was Exceptional

The CFIU Glass Tile course was informative, educational and detailed in the requirements of installation procedures and determinations. The visual photos present were especially useful in understanding what is expected in the performance of the product. Jeff Emanuel

CFI University is unique

CFIU is not like other training facilities, it is unique. Many of the classes at CFIU offer actual hands-on training that you will not receive at most other training facilities. I know, I have been a Certified Inspector for over 33 years. I’ve been to the other classes, I have sat through their training. On… Read more “CFI University is unique”

Not just another Diploma/Certificate mill

CFIU teaches you how to perform an inspection, not just basics and terminology. Other schools offer courses which are the bare minimum required to be able to put the “certified” in front of your name, take your money and send you out the door with a “good luck” and “goodbye”. CFIU teaches real-world, practical skills.… Read more “Not just another Diploma/Certificate mill”

You’re the Tom Brady of inspections

First off I want to tell you that my respect for you as an inspector is off the charts. After just a phone conversation or two and then two days of virtual classes, it was overwhelmingly evident that you KNOW your business and you are GOOD at it – the best of the best! You’re… Read more “You’re the Tom Brady of inspections”

Real in the field scenarios that prepare the inspector with the proper skills

Ron Gould Certified Flooring Inspector

For the past several years we have seen a dramatic change in the data collection and reporting from inspectors that Linda and her team have trained. Their approach to teaching inspectors “how to inspect” has had a positive effect with inspectors going through their training classes. Her teams approach to training does not mask as… Read more “Real in the field scenarios that prepare the inspector with the proper skills”

Excellent & Passionate Training

I’ve been in the flooring industry since the early ’80s and this university is one of the best education courses I’ve received to date.

CFIU educated and supplied me with the tools and knowledge I need

With over 25 years in the flooring industry, I thought the next step would be to become a certified floor inspector. I expected the transition to floor inspection would be a logical step with my background in flooring.

More than just a course and certificate for sure….

Bill Houle

After 27 years in our business from retail, installation, distribution, to manufacturing starting in a new segment can be daunting. I was already certified and chose CFIU as a refresher and additional certification…this was MUCH more than a refresher.

The Luxury Vinyl online course was excellent.

The Luxury Vinyl online course was excellent. You have it put together very well! I plan on continuing with the other courses you offer. Very impressive.

Great course

Great course. Lots of need-to-know information to do an LVT inspection correctly. For the money, you can’t beat it. Even if you’re already an inspector like myself it’s always good to go back refresh your knowledge. Alfred Coates

Fantastic Tests

I must admit, looking over the manuals for each product segment was a bit unnerving. I’ve been inspecting for many years and also am the Technical Director for a large flooring distributor. The depth of the information that includes (in the wood segment) math, knowing how to calculate using the coefficients was actually entertaining; it… Read more “Fantastic Tests”

Switched!

This term means to change the position, direction, or focus of. Having been part of another certifying body since 1994, I realized the time had come to “switch”.

Best Path to become a WORKING Inspector

I took some time to write about my experience with CFI University, simply because over time I have come to respect what people and companies actually do on a consistent basis, not what they tell me they will do upfront.
