ABOUT: Get Your Company PDAA Certified in Architectural Films!

Earn PDAA Certified Architectural Films status to give your business a competitive edge. When installers successfully complete all certification stations, they’ll receive PDAA Certification and a digital badge—proof of their expertise in handling windows, walls, and floors with precision. This certification verifies that installers have the skills, industry knowledge, and tool proficiency to apply standard architectural films in real-world settings like retail stores, trade shows, banks, and offices.

Certification stations include:
✅ Wall graphics with inside and outside corners
✅ Round column application
✅ Floor graphics installation
✅ Wet and dry window applications (including window perf)
✅ Rough textured surface installation
✅ Steel locker unit application

Show your customers and competitors that your team is installation-ready. Register today!

Your company must be a PRINTING United Alliance corporate member and have a PDAA Certified Installer on staff to be listed on the Find an Installer site with the Windows, Walls, and Floors certification. Training will include information on vinyl types and adhesives, application tools, tips and tricks, and demonstrations of each station. Installers will receive training and have the opportunity to practice on all stations. Once confident, the ability to test will also be provided. The successful installer will receive a digital badge to share their achievement. Installers who are corporate members of PRINTING United Alliance will be listed on our exclusive Find an Installer directory with the badge earned next to their listing.

This training will be held at Applied Graphics & Signs, 15048 S. Cicero Ave., Oak Forest, IL 60452.
