CiviCore Launches Mentoring Management System for Home Builders Institute

CiviCore is proud to announce the recent launch of a version of our Mentoring Management platform for the Home Builders Institute (HBI). HBI was well down the road with another vendor when they changed directions and partnered with CiviCore.  We believe that our vast experience in the mentoring space and experience in the non-profit world really made the difference in achieving success on this project.

Headquartered in Washington, D.C.,  HBI was established in 1983 as the workforce development arm of the National Association of Home Builders.  For more than 30 years, HBI has trained skilled workers in residential construction, promoted the industry as a career, and helped the NAHB membership address its need for qualified employees.

Here is what Dennis Torbett, Vice President of HBI Workforce Training & Employment, had to say about our work:

"Home Builders Institute is very pleased to partner with CiviCore in the creation of a database of information for our new U.S. Department of Justice mentoring initiative, C-CORE. Software development is not an easy process, but CiviCore and their professional staff have made it easy and fun.  They have been extremely accommodating in customizing a product that will meet our needs for reliable and pertinent data. Their experience in the mentoring arena has added value to their products and services."


We'd like to commend Dennis and the rest of the team at HBI for the great work they do, and we look forward to working with them going forward.  Thanks, all!
