International Window Cleaning Association (IWCA)
Expert Safety Services is proud to be closely involved with the International Window Cleaning Association, the leading voice of safety for the window cleaning profession and an official OSHA Ambassador organization. Mike Draper has personally helped lead IWCA instructor training events — including a highrise RDS and fall protection session at the Petzl Technical Institute — bringing real-world rope descent and rescue expertise directly into the classroom. Whether you’re a route cleaner or a highrise crew, IWCA membership and training connect you to the industry’s strongest safety standards.
Power Washers of North America (PWNA)
As a certified PWNA instructor and Board of Directors member, Mike Draper helps shape the training and safety standards that guide the exterior cleaning industry nationwide. PWNA sets the bar for professional education, certification, and compliance in power washing and soft washing — giving contractors and their crews the credentials that customers and commercial clients actively look for.
ELEVATE Convention
Each year, PWNA and IWCA join forces for ELEVATE — the exterior cleaning industry’s biggest gathering of contractors, trainers, and manufacturers under one roof. Between hands-on certification classes, live demos, and expert-led sessions, ELEVATE is where the standards taught at Expert Safety Services come directly from the source. It’s a can’t-miss event for any crew serious about leveling up their skills and their business.
Society of Professional Rope Access Technicians (SPRAT)
For technicians working at height on rope, SPRAT certification is the gold standard. This member-driven nonprofit develops the safety standards, training requirements, and certification process that industrial rope access professionals rely on across window cleaning, wind energy, telecom, and inspection work. Expert Safety Services offers SPRAT Level I training right here in Illinois, built around the same safe-work-at-height practices SPRAT has championed since the 1990s.
Scaffold & Access Industry Association (SAIA)
SAIA sets the standard for safe scaffold and suspended access work across the country. Our Suspended Scaffolding Competent Person Training follows SAIA best practices, giving your crew the hands-on skills and documentation needed to keep suspended scaffold operations compliant and safe.
American Society of Safety Professionals (ASSP)
Founded in 1911, ASSP is the world’s oldest and largest professional safety society, representing occupational safety and health professionals across every industry. As an ASSP-aligned trainer, Expert Safety Services draws on the same research, standards development, and best practices that shape workplace safety programs nationwide.
International Solar Cleaning Academy (ISCA)
Solar panel cleaning is one of the fastest-growing niches in exterior maintenance — and one of the least understood from a safety standpoint. ISCA specializes in solar maintenance and PV fire safety training, helping crews understand the unique hazards of working around live electrical systems on rooftops. It’s an essential resource for any company looking to safely expand into solar cleaning services.
Petzl
Petzl is one of the most trusted names in climbing and rope access equipment worldwide, and a longtime training partner of Expert Safety Services and the IWCA. From harnesses to descent devices, Petzl’s gear and technical expertise back up the hands-on training we provide in every rope-based class.
NFPA Standards & Kernmantle Life Safety Equipment
Every rope-based class at Expert Safety Services relies on equipment built to NFPA 1983 — the National Fire Protection Association’s standard for life safety rope and equipment used in emergency services and technical rescue. Kernmantle rope, which pairs a protective outer sheath with a load-bearing core, is the industry standard for rope descent, rescue, and rope access work because of its strength, low stretch, and reliability under load. We train students on equipment that meets or exceeds this standard, every time.
Spray Wash Academy
For contractors looking to grow beyond safety compliance into full business mastery, Spray Wash Academy offers hands-on and online training in pressure washing, soft washing, roof cleaning, and drone operation. It’s a great complementary resource for crews who’ve completed their safety certifications with us and are ready to sharpen their technical and business skills.
