The Auto Glass Safety Council™ (AGSC) is in the final stretch of the harmonization of its Registered Member Company program and its Certified Auto Glass Technician program. The programs will be joined together by the end of next month.
Auto glass replacement technicians at all Registered Member Companies are required to be certified by AGSC by December 31, 2018. “It is important to note that this means technicians need to have taken and passed the AGSC’s technician certification exam to be considered certified,” says Kathy Bimber, director of operations for AGSC.
New technicians of Registered Member Companies will be required to be certified within six months of their hire date. If the technician is already AGSC Qualified or AGSC Certified when hired, then he/she will be still be considered certified at your company.
We encourage companies to help their technicians to become AGSC-Certified early as waiting until after December 15 may cause them to miss the December 31 deadline.

Please note: The offices of the Auto Glass Safety Council™ (AGSC) will be closed December 21 through January 2 for the Christmas and New Year’s holidays. The office will re-open on Thursday, January 3.
