The Irrigation Association’s Select Certified program celebrates 30 years of recognizing exceptional commitment to efficient water management and irrigation best practices. Since 1983, IA’s well-respected Select Certified program has set the bar for irrigation professionals. Today, the program includes six different credentials that help irrigation professionals establish themselves.

With certifications spread across turf, landscape, agriculture and golf disciplines, IA’s certification program also boasts the only national accreditation in the industry, with the certified irrigation contractor program now recognized by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies.

In addition, the IACB had recently announced the formation of an entry-level certified irrigation technician program, and is also exploring the creation of an entry-level ag certification program.
