WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING...
NEEDS ASSESSMENT, PLAN DEVELOPMENT, TRACKING, AND REVIEW
"Prior to the start of our training dates P3 identified areas where our technicians were falling short. This allowed the sessions to be tailored specifically for us."
- Jeff Henderson, Branch Manager, RH Foster
CETP, OSHA, DOT CLASSROOM TRAINING
"We do a lot of in-house training but there are times we have to outsource our CETP training. We reached out to P3 and they offered the best CETP instructor/proctor we have ever had. They clearly proved that not all training opportunities are the same. If you outsource your training, make sure it is through P3."
- David Latourell, Director of Safety & Transportation, Paraco Gas
HANDS-ON FIELD TRAINING
"P3's Field Service Plan training goes well beyond the conventional classroom format. Having a safety expert train in the field at customer locations with our team was when the real learning happened!"
- Jeff Jennings, Co-Owner, Jennings Oil & Propane
REMOTE ON-CALL SUPPORT
"I don't know what we would do without P3's Training Service Plan! It's been critical for us to have an expert available that can provide guidance when needed."
- Randy Dominick, Vice President, Dominick Fuel
