THE Academy of Excellence in Flooring has launched its expanded Quick-Step Master Installer Accreditation Course, which now offers flooring professionals the opportunity to gain professional accreditation in three of the industry’s most in-demand flooring categories: luxury vinyl tile (LVT), wood flooring and laminate.
The enhanced three-day programme has been developed by Quick-Step to provide installers with comprehensive practical training and technical knowledge resulting in professional accreditation designed to help boost earning potential and business growth.
The new course reflects the growing demand for multi-skilled flooring installers who can confidently work across a range of flooring. Over three intensive and highly practical days, participants will learn advanced installation techniques, discover new ways of working and develop the expertise required to meet Quick-Step’s exacting professional standards.
Open to installers with a minimum of two years’ fitting experience, the course combines hands-on training with a practical assessment, culminating in the prestigious Quick-Step Master Installer accreditation for those that successfully complete the evaluation.

Three days of intensive practical training
Held at the Academy of Excellence in Flooring’s state-of-the-art training facility in Knowsley, Liverpool, the course provides a balanced combination of technical learning and practical application.
It begins with essential ‘must know’ topics including health and safety, flooring systems, problem prevention and subfloor preparation, before moving into practical workshop sessions covering engineered rigid vinyl, wood, laminate and herringbone installations, stair applications, finishing profiles, repairs and professional fitting techniques.
Throughout the programme, installers benefit from expert coaching and mentoring from the Academy’s Master Installer Trainer. The course culminates in a practical assessment, where participants independently demonstrate their ability to complete complex installations to Quick-Step’s exacting standards. Successful candidates will earn Quick-Step Master Installer accreditation, recognising their expertise and commitment to professional excellence.
With limited places available on each course, flooring professionals are encouraged to book early to secure their place and take advantage of this unique opportunity to upskill across three flooring categories in a single accreditation programme.
