CPIM Instructor Quotes

“We see a growth in in-house CPIM Part 1 and Part 2 courses, one of the reasons I believe is the

addition of the online learning system, which is really good and makes the CPIM much more

interesting for students to learn from.”

“I actually told my class tonight that I was giddy about all the tools available to them and me. “We’re

finally in the 21st Century!” The tools are amazing and I’m really looking forward to working through

them with the class. We spent a good portion of the class time navigating the tool and we received

nothing but positive feedback.”

“My class was very impressed with the tools. It might help that I was so excited about showing them

everything they had access to.”

“I think these tools are just what we needed to modernize the training.” I SEE the value of the tool. I

made an effort to look at what was available and how I could use them.”
