Becoming an Instructor

Since the InstallationMasters® Training and Certification Program’s inception, industry professionals ranging from fenestration product manufacturers and dealers to building material retailers and consultants have successfully completed the instructor training program. Although the manufacturer’s instructions should always take precedence, accredited personnel are able to train their installation teams on the industry’s minimum requirements. Having an in-house trainer allows for more flexibility in scheduling installer classes and can reduce costs associated with those classes.
