NWFA and Lägler Collaborate to Offer Sand & Finish Dual-Certification Program

 

ST. LOUIS, Missouri (March 14, 2016) – NWFA Certified Professionals and Lägler are working together to offer a dual-certification program for wood flooring sand and finishers. This dual certification opportunity will enable sand and finishers to build their credibility in the marketplace by holding certifications from two highly recognized entities.

“As our certification programs become more and more prevalent in the marketplace, it only makes sense for us to join forces with the manufacturers who have training and certification programs that meet or exceed our standards” says Brett Miller, Vice President of Education and Certification at the NWFA.

The adoption of this program will raise the visibility of the NWFA Certified Professional certification. More than 30 manufacturers recommend using NWFA Certified Professionals for their wood flooring products.

Lägler has been offering a training and certification program for several years that recently came to the US. Once students complete the Lägler (PST) program and become Lägler certified, they can become an NWFA Certified Sand and Finisher as well. Upon passing these tests, students will become NWFA Certified Sand and Finishers.
