Product Description
The AGSI Certification Study Guide is a practical, technician-focused companion to the AGSI Certification Standards & Competency Framework (the official Book of Knowledge used to develop the certification examinations).
This guide is designed to help candidates organize their preparation, understand how topics are applied in real service scenarios, and build confidence before sitting for the AGSI certification exam.
The Study Guide does not replace the official Standards & Competency Framework and is not required to take or pass the exam. Many candidates, however, find it helpful for translating formal standards into everyday field decision-making.
What This Study Guide Includes
Plain-language explanations of key competency areas
Practical examples and field-based scenarios aligned to exam domains
Clarification of commonly misunderstood concepts
Study prompts and review summaries to support focused preparation
Alignment with both Level 1 and Level 2 certification pathways
All content is educational and preparatory in nature and is structured to mirror the organization of the official AGSI framework—without duplicating or replacing it.
What This Guide Is — and Is Not
This guide IS:
A supplemental study aid
A practical interpretation of exam-relevant topics
A preparation resource created to support applied judgment
This guide IS NOT:
The certification exam
A guarantee of passing
A substitute for the official AGSI Certification Standards & Competency Framework
A regulatory, legal, or safety authority
AGSI certification exams assess applied professional judgment using scenario-based questions. Because of this, reference materials may be permitted during the exam, and preparation focuses on understanding—not memorization.
