“The instructors that we’ve had from IES were very good at bringing in tangible, real-world examples that were easy to imagine and really help us learn as we go through how things could work. That’s also a very valuable part of the NC State IES program specifically.”

“IES came in one day, left, and provided a summary. I was blown away by how much they were able to see, understand, and communicate with us in that one 8-hour period. It was a wonderful experience, and it has been even more positive in retrospect. What surprised me was how much information they were able to gather about our staff, culture, and operational practices. I didn’t see that coming. To be honest, I felt like two suits were gonna walk in here with a clipboard. But no, it wasn’t like that at all.”

“IES made the process manageable for us as a small business. They broke down complex concepts, helped us develop documentation, and offered support whenever we felt stuck. Having a partner like IES is invaluable.”
