Testimonials
from attendees of The Ultimate Concrete Countertop Training:
I know the product that I am creating is of high quality and something I can stand behind with confidence. The class looks at concrete countertops from the technical side and Jeff explains not only the what, but the why, which is very important to me.
- Paul, WI
A bottom up, comprehensive approach that teaches about the entire process. You can take the information and go in your own direction, opposed to just learning a ‘style’. The emphasis on quality and strength is great.
- Clint, CA
I feel the ‘why’ was truly addressed. The science behind the art was made very clear to me.
- Peter, KS
The objective of this class is really what is meaningful thorough basic knowledge on the reinforcement and engineering part of it.
- Paolo, San Juan, PR
Excellent and detailed information from A to Z. It really gives you all the building blocks for your business.
- Eddy, MD
A must if serious about countertop construction.

Very informative.
- Michael, PA
Jeff does a great job of classroom and workshop instruction. He breaks up times to allow you to stay focused. Though Jeff is an engineer, he presents his course in layman terms so that you understand everything he is doing.
- Greg, PA
Wish that CCI would have been around years ago. I could have been working for myself instead of someone else. CCI provides the knowledge needed plus materials for a start for someone interested in starting a business.
