ACI Concrete Flatwork Finisher Examinee Information
What do I need to do to be certified as an ACI Concrete Flatwork
Finisher?
You must pass a written exam, supply evidence of work experience
and possibly pass a performance exam.
How much work experience do I need for certification?
You have two options:
1. If you will not be taking a performance exam, you need 4500
hours (3 years) of verified work experience to qualify for
certification as a Finisher.
2. If you will be taking the performance exam, you need 1500 hours
(1 year) of verified work experience to qualify for certification
as a Finisher.
How is this work experience verified?
The work experience is verified by your former and/or present
employer(s) or by former clients; these persons are called
RESPONDENTS.
What forms do I need?
If the respondent is an employer, you need Form D5 and the
INFORMATION FOR RESPONDENT sheet. If you intend to
be certified without taking the performance exam (under the
4500 hour option), you must also use Form D16.
If you are self employed, you need Form D17 and the
INFORMATION FOR RESPONDENT sheet.
If you are a union employee, please see the “Union Participant”
instructions following this page.
What do I do with the forms?
Form D5, D16, and INFORMATION FOR RESPONDENT
sheet — Complete Sections A and B of Form D5 and send to
the respondent along with a D16 Form and RESPONDENT
INFORMATION sheet. Send one of these packages to as many
respondents as needed to prove the required number of hours of
work experience.
Bring the sealed envelopes containing the forms with you to the
written exam session, or send them to the ACI Certification Department
at:
PO Box 9094
Farmington Hills, MI 48333
