Terry Schaefer

Terry’s involvement with AGMT and NACC began at inception, and he worked closely with partners from across the glazing and construction community to build trust and value in both programs.

Terry joined AMS as a quality assurance manager, leveraging several years of quality control and fabrication engineering experience in the recreational vehicle industry. His formative years involved spearheading efforts to get AMS recognized as an ANSI Accredited Certification Body, which required intimate knowledge of all aspect of AMS’s business. After helping NACC and AGMT successfully launch, and guiding the company through the pandemic, Terry was named Vice President in 2022. Terry provides oversight of all certification activities and signs off as program administrator, literally putting his name on the line as a commitment to high standards and fairness. To ensure trust in the certifications remains paramount, Terry serves professionally on the National Fenestration Rating Council impartiality committee and other trade groups.

Terry is married with three elementary-school-aged sons. A native of Indiana, he spends his free time sharing his love of the outdoors with his kids – from building an elaborate backyard treehouse to teaching his oldest to hunt.
