After an abundance of workplace fatalities, the industry identified the gaps in qualified people supervising AST projects. The Individual Qualification and Certification Institute of America was formed to bridge those gaps. The Goal is to provide the “BEST” method of assurance; that the individuals are well-trained and fully qualified to perform this work. Our mission is to train supervisors in the best safety practices, thereby reducing the number of on-site fatalities and injuries.
