AGCP Member Certification is based on 10 Levels of qualification. Qualification requirements are designed to allow potential customers to judge the members knowledge, experience, education and the equipment the member has in their shop so they can judge the quality and extent of services offered by the member.

All AGCP members are required to pass an essay test and submit photos of they shop along with copies or photos of their school diplomas and certification certificates from various schools. If you are highly qualified by other organizations you can apply for an oral quiz to determine your eligibility for a waiver of the written essay portion of the test. You will be required to send in the photos of your shop and equipment.
