FAQs
How does certification work?
GlasWeld’s windshield repair certification program is completely online.
When you purchase certification, you will receive an email with a link. That link will take you to a platform with training videos and questions. After watching each training video, you will be asked a few related questions. There’s no need to study beforehand; the videos will provide all the information you need to answer the questions.
Once you’ve answered all the questions, you will receive an email with a PDF of your certificate, your score, and a list of questions you missed.
How long does the process take?
The certification process usually takes about 3-5 hours. However, you can take a break at any point; your progress will be saved.
What will I learn?
There are seven main sections.
- An Introduction to Windshield Repair: why repair, understanding glass, common theories

How does online training prepare me for real-life repairs?
Experience is the best teacher. If you already have GlasWeld tools, we highly recommend using a piece of scrap glass and practicing the techniques as you go through the certification process.
We also offer ongoing in-person training at our headquarters in Bend, Oregon. Learn more.
I don’t use GlasWeld tools. Will this still be helpful?
The concepts we cover in certification are generally universal to windshield repair. However, the technical sections may not apply to non-GlasWeld tools.
