Why I chose to pursue the Certified Compost Operations Manager Certification ...
"The CCOM certification is important for my professional development and allows me to communicate to the composting community that Atlas is committed to providing the training necessary to our leadership to maintain high standards of production in the field and consistently produce outstanding products. We value our partnership with USCC and the resources and knowledge they provide."
