Accreditation Tests

IWFA accreditations are offered to individuals, not companies. A business owner that has taken the extra step to gain IWFA accreditations may indicate to the prospective buyer the individual’s understanding of a common base of knowledge and its application to the window film service being offered. As part of the IWFA’s commitment to the industry it has developed accreditation testing designed to evaluate an individual’s professional knowledge and its application. The program includes the study of educational materials, test preparation and an optional topic review, ultimately leading to an exam where at least 80 percent of the questions must be answered correctly.
