IAPD Certificate Program: Level One
Are you ready for the next level? Almost 1,000 people have passed the program and now know that the IAPD Plastics Certificate program can take your knowledge to a higher level. The program was developed by the IAPD Education Committee to help educate and evaluate sales professionals in the plastics distribution industry and is based on a broad understanding of the industry.
Though this product comes in the form of a test, it is meant as an educational tool for continued learning. Candidates have 30 days to complete the exam. You may take it all in one sitting, or you can treat it like an open-book test, and use the 30-day period to research the answers you currently do not know. Talk with your supervisor to determine which is the best use for you and your organization.

Level two, like level one, also comes in the form of a test, but it’s meant to serve as a learning tool. It evaluates your ability to help your customer by providing customer service solutions. You will not always know all of the answers, but in order to be a successful distribution professional, you must know where to find them. This test gives you the practice to help you accomplish that goal.
