Welcome to the Independent Windscreen Academy

Whether you’re an experienced auto glazing technician seeking a refresher vehicle glazing training course or a young person looking for a dynamic Apprenticeship in Automotive Glazing, you’ve come to the right place!

IWA is the leading independent auto training school for vehicle glazing in the UK, covering everything from Apprenticeships to full industry accreditation in auto glazing, CPD courses in vehicle glazing and national qualifications.

Modern vehicle glazing is known as ‘smart’ glass and requires a complex set of skills to repair and replace it. Windscreens incorporate solar and hydrophobic coatings, rain, light and heat sensors, radio and GPS antennae and even Head-Up Display.

The windscreen is a major structural component, providing as much as 30% of a vehicle’s strength, as manufacturers see the benefits of glass in both vehicle design and construction.

In this critically important industry, IWA’s mission is to help auto technicians and businesses in the automotive glazing and body repair sectors step up to new challenges and realise their full potential by developing skills, competence, knowledge and professionalism.
