| The
IWCCI Certification program consists of four different workbooks that may be used singularly,
or combined depending on the certification levelrequired. All workbooks
are available in either English or Spanish. Window cleaners learn about the safe use of basic window cleaning equipment and chemicals, and/or
the use of more complicated equipment including high-rise access
equipment. They will also gain an understanding of how to assess a job site for
hazards and what can be done to overcome those hazards. To see an explanation
of what workbooks are required for each level of certification by
clicking on Certification Levels under the photo on the right. The
workbooks are availableto download in the Members Only section of this website.
In addition
to using the workbook(s) as a study aid, the window cleaners must also
undertake a specific amount of verified "On-the-Job" Training hours. The number
of hours is directly applicable to the desired level of certification.
Specific hours are listed under the Frequently Asked Questions section
of this website and are to be documented and submitted by the employee's
company representative. "On-the-Job" Training forms must be downloaded
from the Members Only section of this website and submitted to the IWCCI.
The final step
in achieving IWCCI Certification is passing the final exam. The exams can only be taken online.
The entire
IWCCI Certification process is simple, yet efficient so that all companies, large or
small can easily incorporate the program into their current operations.
