Its not something you can obtain overnight. One must pass an exam and an installation mock up at the facility. There are only a handful of certified contractors in our area. A mfg training such as Hilti cannot get you the cert.

Can anyone point me to a copy of the standard? I was unable to find it on FM's site. What is involved with this process? Thanks for the help.
