Certified Fence Professional (CFP)

The American Fence Association has developed a rigorous certification program for fence professionals to become certified within their industry. A Certified Fence Professional (CFP) must meet a stringent set of requirements:

• Supplying a personal history of service to the fence industry prior to sitting for the examination.
• Successfully completing a comprehensive four-hour examination, which is administered periodically throughout the year, including at the annual FENCETECH®.
• Sign an affidavit and a commitment to the American Fence Association, as well as be subjected to a peer review process.

A CFP must also re-certify every three years by completing the mandatory continuing education requirement, as well as submitting a re-certification application.

Certified Fence Professionals are at the top of their industry. Being a CFP demonstrates your commitment to excellence to not only your peers but potential customers as well.
