Good morning Julio,
Pete covered it well. The three classes are what's on the calendar right now. We'll be posting classes for next year in the next month or so. You can always follow our PDAA Facebook page to see announcements of classes when they are posted to the website (Search for PDAA on Facebook, and you will see the group). It's open to all installers. I hope to see you at a training/certification event soon.

Hello Julio,
We currently have three certification badges: Architectural (windows, walls & floors), Vehicle & Fleet and Architectural (resurfacing films). The first two currently have a scheduled event in December in Fairfax, VA. The next resurfacing films badge event is scheduled at our satellite location in Sacramento, CA in January. You can view these here
if you are looking for the first two badges, check back for updates to the schedule as they will be offered again in Sacramento early next year.
Thanks for your interest and desire to elevate your game and industry credibility.

I was advised of a class closer to the west coast for PDAA installation certification. This particular class is in Sacramento and is not specific to Vehicle wraps.
Regardless, would this certification allow me to be certified as an installer also advertising vehicle wrap installs? Would this be useful in obtaining the certification in contrast to traveling to VA?
Considering I have 20 years experience in any digital graphic install, would it help to use this as a broader spectrum of my abilities?
