Safety & Solar Film Certification Exam

Half Day Exam: $995

Intermediate - 1 year of experience recommended

 
Ready to prove your expertise? The Safety & Solar Film Certification Exam is a half-day assessment held on the third day, immediately following the 2-day training. Pass the exam and earn your Avery Dennison certification — one of the most meaningful credentials in the flat glass window film industry.
We strongly recommend completing the 2-day Safety and Solar Film Training before registering for the exam. You should also have at least one year of hands-on experience in architectural window film installation before sitting for the exam.
 

What the Exam Covers

The exam is designed to test your knowledge and skills across three major categories:
  • Avery Dennison Film Product Knowledge: Know your films, their properties, and when to use them.
  • Window Film Technical Specifications: Understand performance data, glazing compatibility, and how to read datasheets.
  • Installation Practices: Demonstrate correct technique, sequencing, and use of attachment systems.
  • Avery Dennison Window Film Specs: Test your knowledge of Avery Dennison films and product verbiage.

 

How the Exam Works

The exam consists of 4 hands-on installation modules and 1 multiple choice written quiz. You must pass all 4 modules and the written quiz to earn your certification.
  • A score of 85% or higher is required to pass the written portion of the exam.
