One of IHP’s Strongest Characteristics Is Its Culture.

IHP is blessed to have the classiest, highest spirited clientele of any training facility in the region. It is this diverse clientele that gives IHP its spirit and makes it the friendly and world-renowned facility it has become. The following policies are the standard that the IHP clientele has already set, and it is with our member’s help and in our member’s honor that we make these the IHP Gold Standard Policies. We hope you’ll join us in our quest for excellence.
