RE-CERTIFICATION INFORMATION |
Certificates awarded by AWCI are valid for a limited period. For more information, click on the link below that corresponds with your certification.
Re-certification procedures involve activities that review, expand upon and update knowledge of EIF systems - or in the case of Inspectors, retaking the examinations. Notices will be mailed to the address on file early in the a year of the expiration date. Please contact the office if you do not receive it.
It is to the certificate holders' benefit, and for the benefit of the EIFS industry, to take the steps to keep their certification valid. It demonstrates their commitment to the process and that they stay up to date with their qualifications and trade.
When making your decision to renew, think of the benefits that accompany a nationally recognized credential and be aware that your certification prepares you for future mandating or insurance requirements. If you decide not to renew, please be sure you will not require your certification in the future. When people decide not to renew, they sometimes find themselves in need of the credential at a later date. In that case, you would be required to complete the entire process as if you had never been certified.
Those who choose to renew will receive an updated wallet certificate, a paper certificate, listing on AWCI's National Registry and continued benefits from holding a nationally recognized certification.
