Who is eligible?

    Option A: Hold an NRCA ProCertified roof system installer certification in the roof system in which you want to be designated

    Option B: Have two or more years of experience as a roofing foreman overseeing installation of the roof system in which you want to be designated

  • Responding to safety and quality violations in a timely fashion
  • Motivating installers
  • Modeling professional behavior
  • Demonstrating effective leadership

A separate verification form must be submitted for each roof system designation.
