Why attend a GPRO training?
“Knowing the importance of designing a building to meet the requirements of GPRO standards—on not only the electrical side but also the HVAC, Plumbing, and Carpentry—has been a huge advantage when taking plans to the architect and electrical engineer… This has helped in us being the contractor of choice.” — Glenn F.
