My brain is completely changed from doing this course. The information in the Healthy Building Materials Mastermind™ fills a gap missing in the industry.

The content is well paced, engaging, important and so relevant to the priorities of clients and building industry professionals today. 

If this information were taught in universities we would be on our way to a healthier society and vastly improved building stock.
