Three-day, hands-on Eco-Grip® certification at our new Southern California training location in San Diego. Classes run Tuesday through Thursday. Spaces are limited — reserve your training week below.
Eco-Grip® performs because it's installed right — SpeedFlex™ welded seams, a routed integral cove base, and proper substrate prep leave no room for guesswork.
That's why the product is available for purchase only through certified installers. Certification protects the warranty, the end customer, and the reputation of every contractor who carries the credential.

Our three-business-day installation class familiarizes qualified vinyl flooring installers with every component of the Eco-Grip system — sub-floor prep, proper adhesive use, welding, approved installation methods, flooring layout, and seaming techniques. This is a hands-on training: certificates and Approved Installer status are earned through the skills you demonstrate in class.
All required training tools, supplies, and materials are provided, and lunch is served each day (let us know about any allergies or preferences). Your $995 fee covers the full three-day program.
Kneepads, a Sharpie, a tape measure, and a utility knife — we provide the blades. You'll be responsible for the tools and equipment assigned to you during training.
Trainees who need more reps are told by the end of day two, get extra coaching on day three, and may be offered a day-four extension. Attendance alone does not guarantee approval — mastery does.
Spaces are limited and candidates are selected in the order their RSVPs are received.
Pick an available Tuesday–Thursday training week below and tell us about yourself and your company. Your RSVP must be submitted at least 7 days before your requested start date.
We review your experience and availability for the requested week. Candidates are confirmed in order of submission — you'll hear from us within 72 hours.
Confirmed candidates receive an online invoice for the $995 training fee. Your seat is reserved once payment is complete — spots are not held without completed payment and paperwork.
Each attendee returns a photo ID copy, photos of previous install work, and a signed Training Expectations acknowledgement, and confirms travel arrangements with our office before class.
Complete the three-day class in San Diego, demonstrate mastery, and leave with your certificate and Approved Installer status — plus purchase access to Eco-Grip® through SWD.
Training runs Tuesday–Thursday each week at our San Diego location. Spaces are limited and awarded in order of submission — an RSVP requests a week; it does not guarantee a seat until you're confirmed and paid.
