Sackets Harbor, NY — The Architectural Glass and Metal Certification Council (AGMCC) which sponsors and coordinates the North American Contractor Certification (NACC) and Architectural Glass and Metal Technician (AGMT) programs, North America’s only third-party credentials for glazing contractors and glaziers, has entered into exploratory talks to identify collaboration opportunities with the National Glass Association (NGA), provider of glass industry resources such as MyGlassClass.com, technical manuals, and industry events. The move comes after AGMT successfully hosted its first testing event on the exhibit floor during NGA’s GlassBuild America 2024 trade show.
“We appreciate the opportunity NGA provided to host our first live AGMT testing event during GlassBuild America, giving attendees a look at the rigor and sophistication of AGMT certification,” said AGMT program manager Scott Kennett. “As both AGMT and NACC programs grow in recognition and participation, we are enthusiastic about relationships with leading glazing industry organizations such as NGA.”
“Witnessing the AGMT test in person and hearing from AGMCC board and committee members during their annual meeting after NGA’s GlassBuild America underscored the value of further collaboration,” said NGA VP of Workforce Development Jenni Chase. “Our member community is 1,800+ companies strong, and we take pride in being a resource to our members to help them grow successful businesses. Certification can be an important part of that success.”
