AFA Fence Contractor Business School

The AFA (American Fence Association) Fence Contractor Business School (FCBS) is an education program built to help fence professionals strengthen the business side of running a fence contracting company—not just the technical craft. FCBS focuses on practical training across areas like business planning and financial management, operations/project management, legal and risk considerations, and go-to-market skills including marketing and sales strategies. The school also supports a certification option: FCBS directly supports preparation for the Certified Fence Contractor (CFC) credential (certification is optional and requires a separate application/fee, with the option to sit for the exam at the end).
