Training

  • I must say, I am very impressed with the training itself (so comprehensive, interesting and informative!), as well as with everyone I have interacted with at HQ.

  • I just wanted to write and let you know how impressed I am with the quality of the training materials.  I have long been a greener and knew a great deal of the information and was pleasantly pleased to see the presentations were truthful and not tilted just to sell products.  I even picked up some new info I didn’t know!  As a webmaster myself, I also can appreciate the amount of time that went into the presentations, very well produced, informative, good audio and video, and timed well for beginners and advanced users as well.I was also impressed to see the information presented is about being an eco-consultant NOT about signing up other eco-consultants as many home based business opportunities are.Green Irene can be a stand alone business or act as a compliment to another green related business. For example,  I am a licensed mortgage broker, offer energy efficient mortgages and work with the homeowner to select sustainable products for their “greenovers” so Green Irene is a great add on for me for those homeowners who want to pick the “low hanging fruit” of going green without doing a remodel.All of my correspondence with the company have been timely and answered all my questions.I am so pleased to be part of the Green Irene organization and look forward to many years of greening our world together.

  • Thank you for this wonderful opportunity with Green Irene! As the saying goes, “I’m beginning to realize that the more I learn, how little I know!” The training modules were so well done – now the exciting part has come in sharing all this knowledge with others. To be a part of an organization that helps others save money, reduce their energy consumption, save water, live more toxic-free and save the planet, what a wonderful legacy to a life! I also wanted to say that I so appreciate that you never came across as a “slick salesman” in the modules, but rather an everyday person in the training modules. It was as a friend speaking to a friend.

  • I am a new eco-consultant and have just finished the online training. First off, I’d like to thank the entire training and research team. The content was comprehensive, well designed, and far exceeded my expectations.

  • I have 15 years of experience in sales specific to the home improvement industry….Let me commend you on the body and depth of knowledge you have imparted to all the people you have mentored with this training. I have enjoyed it immensely.

  • Green Irene did a superb job developing a comprehensive system and databank!! We’re so much more excited than when we decided that you were a match for us.

  • I felt the training to be a Green Irene Consultant was very good. It covered all the material in an easy to understand format. It was well worth the hours to go through it all. We thought we were green before, but after the training, we found several more ways to improve our carbon footprint. Several good marketing ideas were also included to help us get started as well.

  • I am already impressed by the completeness of the training and I’m only about half-way through.

  • I have completed the Green Business Makeover Training and found it very interesting and well done.

  • I have thoroughly enjoyed my Eco-Consultant training with Green Irene. I have been doing wellness consultations for eight years, specializing in chemical elimination. The information in the Toxic Free Living section of the training was very thorough and I felt happy (and validated) seeing some of the same websites, articles and link that I have been sharing with my clients for years. The wealth of knowledge in all areas was amazing, and well worth my time, effort and money. I am excited to integrate this new information into my current business. Green Irene has given me the training it would have taken me years to learn on my own.

  • I just wanted to let you know how my first green home makeover went. It went great! Yes, I was very nervous but my customer was very patient and understanding. It felt really good to know that I was helping another go green; very exhilarating to say the least. I almost called to reschedule but I told myselt, ‘Rhonda you can do this! Believe in yourself!’ I left feeling confident and ready for the next green home makeover. Thanks Green Irene for the training and the opportunity!

  • Wow! Very comprehensive and informative. Everything I ever wanted to know about CFL’s and more! The format is clear and concise, easy to navigate and organized well. Any info that is repeated, I feel rather than being redundant, was actually good reiteration as reinforcement for our knowledge of the subject. Once I memorize and integrate the info, I feel very prepared to inspect a home in regards to energy efficient lighting, educate and inspire the clients, and to make recommendations and sales. I really feel there is so much to know that people really do need our expertise to make correct and trouble-free choices. Thank you for doing so much research and testing to help make us successful consultants!

  • I’ve been working on training this last week with every free moment I can find. It’s going well. I’ve been studying these issues for longer than I care to admit, so a lot of it is review. But I appreciate the quality of the training, and the quantity of material. Even with my background I’m still learning a lot.I’ve been tremendously impressed with Green Irene so far, and the more I learn the more my enthusiasm grows. My head is spinning a bit now, but I’m looking forward to every new step I take. Thanks so much for the opportunity.

  • I thoroughly enjoyed this training and still have much to review with the extensive library collection. I am especially interested in supplementing my indoor air quality/mold testing business.

  • I just completed the Green Office Makeover training and once again, a very thorough training. … I am very impressed with all the modules I have done and feel you have all done a tremendous job in helping the consultants with learning all there is to know about going green! Thanks so much!

  • I have just finished the Green Irene Eco Training and consider it one of the most comprehensive online training programs I have been involved with… In comparison with [online college] courses that I have taken on green building and building analysis, the Green Irene online course is a very comprehensive and extensive educational resource. I can reassure any prospective Eco-Consultant that they will be extremely qualified to represent Green Irene after completing your training.

  • [I am] a Realtor with the Green Designation. Your training materials were quite impressive and I hope to learn more from the other resources available.

  • Wanted to mention that I really thought the training was great. Very straightforward and loaded with facts that can be applied easily.

  • Thank you for the excellent content in the training. I found it very informative and I thought that you all did a good job of keeping it concise. …. I look forward to future training modules.

  • I was lucky to have been involved with Green training in my last job and as a Member with the local USGBC, but the Green Irene training was fantastic. I believe individuals can always find a golden nugget in training, and Green Irene gave me a mountain of nuggets.What Shade of Green are you? Schedule your Green Home Makeover today.

  • I was very impressed with the training.  It was very easy to follow and learn because I was both listening and reading.  The audio and visual broke it up a bit so it wasn’t monotonous. It was all interesting and to the point – nothing superfluous, but detailed enough to be an expert in the green field and be able to answer customer’s questions.  The price was very reasonable for what I received in exchange.  If you’re already an environmentalist, it will be an overview of what you already do in your life and won’t be hard to learn everything down pat.

  • I went through the training as fast as possible, mostly because I am so eager to keep going (like a good book I didn’t want to put it down). Now I’m going back, retaining information, making local business contacts and getting the word out about what I can do. Research can be as rewarding as it is challenging, but Green Irene has a great researcher who helps us out as much as she can.

  • Another informative module! Well organized, accessible, comprehensive…The video links are great throughout! I am really impressed at how much you have done your homework and have distilled the info here for us.

  • The training was great– very practical and it definitely covered just about everything. As someone who has already greened my house quite a bit over the last three years, it was pretty interesting for me to learn some of the science behind a lot of the stuff we were already doing.

  • The Eco-Consultant training is tremendous. I’m so impressed with the volume of resources you provide.

  • I found the training amazing to say the least. The amount and quality of information that I have obtained exceeds any expectation that I had. The modules are great, and the extra links and videos are a perfect complement.

  • Having just finished the online training I wanted to take a few moments to say WELL DONE! I was very impressed with how thorough the training course is: that alone separates it from any other direct sales company I have come across over the years.

    I have had a deep interest in the green movement for a couple years now and have been reading and watching everything I can to learn more. It is suprising to me how much the masses do not know about this subject. I was just let go from an 18 year job in corporate america and have always done what I had to do. Now it’s time to do what I want. Being an eco-consultant is what I want. I am very impressed with what I have seen so far and look forward to getting started. Thanks GreenIrene for giving me and avenue to learn and get going. Can’t wait to start educating and helping people go green. See you soon!

    I have been looking for a way to get involved in the Green movement and Green Irene was the right choice. The training was very well organized and easy to navigate. The depth of the material was perfect, not too technical but it gave you more ways to dive deeper into material if you wanted to. As an adjunct professor of on-line courses I can appreciate the amount of effort it took to organize and maintain the Green Irene training modules. They were excellent.

    The new video modules with PJ giving a consultation were perfect. It brought all the pieces together for me and gave me the confidence I needed to give my first Home Makeover.

    Thanks

    Green Irene’s training and the volume of resources are amazing. I admit I approached the Green Irene opportunity with some trepidation. The website and reviews were good, but I was still wary of finding myself committed to a venture that sounded too good to be true. Not only are all the reviews true – great training, responsive staff and an energizing format – but the thorough training has left me feeling completely confident in my new role as a Green Irene Eco-Consultant!

  5. Deb Hollister says:

    As a Certified Home Stager, I am excited to create a Green Home Makeover service compatable with my Home Staging business. Green Irene will give me the opportunity to offer sevices to my present clients after they move (or before) as well as working with real estate agents. Green Irene did a great job in their educational modules to prepare me as a “consultant” and give me confidence that I really can educate my clients and help service their needs through Green Irene products.

    I am also confident that Green Irene will continue in their committment to keep their edge sharp as new technology is developed and passed on to us as eco-consultants. Thank you GI!!

    Green Irene will soon become a household word in America!! I am excited to be in on the ground floor with services that are needed and useful to keep this home of ours called “earth” a better place for years to come.

  6. Christie Rosckes says:

    Eco-consultant training not only improved my green industry knowledge but helped me catch up to speed with my marketing knowledge by covering trends in digital media and social marketing which I’m excited to use to help boost my business. The team behind the scenes was also super helpful – even responding to email questions on the weekends which was great since that’s when I had time to view training with two young kids at home. Thanks, Green Irene! Your business concept is a perfect match for my skill set and what I know consumers and businesses are desiring out there.
