"Why I pursued certification?”
I wanted to be recognized for the training and education that I have completed through the leading industry associations, the USCC and CREF. Often, public and private entities require certification or qualifications that prove my expertise, prior to engagement on their projects. The training is also helpful as I train other community composters.
