Accredited Drillers Training
IGSHPA announces its first-ever Accredited Drillers Training—Applications of 
Production Drilling and Borehole Construction for GeoExchange Systems course. This new workshop will train individuals on proper construction and completion methods for vertical GeoExchange boreholes. Currently, drilling contractors searching for industry training on GeoExchange heat pumps must attend a full Accredited Installer workshop. Because certain topics covered within the Accredited Installer course do not pertain to drilling contractors, IGSHPA has formed this training course to provide drilling contractors with information that’s unique to them on a GeoExchange job site.
Who should attend?
Current Drilling Contractors, Drilling Company Owners, Drilling Company Project Managers, Drilling Company Administrators

Accreditation as an “Accredited Vertical Loop Installer” will be awarded with successful completion of the course and exam. You will receive a vertical loop installer's card and a certificate.
