About QCP
Make the industry standard your standard
AWI’s Quality Certification Program (QCP) uses woodwork industry standards to establish expectations and quality assurance tools for industries and professionals associated with interior architectural woodwork projects. Like most construction projects, trends influence architectural preferences and styles. However, quality of workmanship and integrity of work ethic remain integral principles that will never go out of style. The AWI-QCP certification provides the assurance that you can deliver both quality and integrity.
QCP Credentials
Earning QCP credentials demonstrates the technical skill and knowledge of experts working in the architectural, woodworking or construction professions. Quality assurance is guaranteed through an extensive collaboration of inspectors, who serve as extensions of construction/architectural/woodworking firms, to verify, consult on and report compliance with the Architectural Woodwork Standards (AWS).
The Architectural Woodwork Standards
The AWS sets industry best practices, provides technical and design illustrations and addresses all facets of architectural woodwork, from raw lumber and veneer through factory finishing and installation. Endorsed by the American Subcontractors Association (ASA), QCP gives industry professionals the edge they need to build confidence in clients, deliver better products and attract more business.
