CERTIFICATION

Certifications play a significant role in today’s construction industry. As a recognized industry tool, certifications provide an independent evaluation to ensure an individual has the education, experience and knowledge to succeed.

BCSP’s Safety Trained Supervisor Construction® Certification

The STSC® (Safety Trained Supervisor – Construction) is offered by the Board of Certified Safety Professionals (BCSP) which is a third-party organization that develops and administers a variety of safety certifications. This certification is appropriate for anyone who has the responsibility to supervise working conditions and employees on the jobsite.

AISC Certification Program

The AISC certifications ensure that contractors have the personnel, knowledge, equipment, experience, procedures and capability to produce quality work. Having an AISC certification improves consistency of operations and demonstrates commitment to quality, setting partner contractors apart from the competition.

PCI Certification

The Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute has a certification program for contractors who manufacture or install precast. It is often spec’d into projects by end users, architects or engineers as one of the methods of pre-qualifying bidders. This program was developed in an effort to grow market share for the ironworkers and partner contractors who employ them. The program offers a one-time payment for IMPACT contractors who obtain their certification or apply for a recertification.

Welding Certification Program

The program provides certificates and photo identification cards specifying each welding process in which an ironworker is certified allowing verification of skills by employers.
