For skilled vinyl siding installers, becoming a VSI Certified Installer is easy. Get started by taking a class taught by a VSI Certified Trainer — online or in-person. Next, pass an exam that tests your knowledge about vinyl siding installation and industry recognized installation standards according to ASTM D4756.

Your certification through the VSI Certified Installer Program is valid for five years.
After initial certification, you must apply for recertification every five years to ensure you're up-to-date on the latest vinyl siding application techniques.
