Philippines, India get certification programs
The American Concrete Institute recently approved the initiation of ACI certification programs in the Philippines and India, increasing the total number of countries outside of the United States where ACI certification programs are regularly offered to 19.
ACI certification examinations (and training, if offered) are administered by local sponsoring groups, which are typically ACI Chapters, trade associations, public agencies, and educational institutions working with the support and participation of businesses within the construction industry.
Certification programs are now available for aggregate testing technicians, flatwork finishers, field-testing technicians, inspectors, laboratory testing technicians, shotcrete nozzlemen and tilt-up supervisors. (248) 848-3800 www.concrete.org
