Being properly trained and then maintaining one’s certifications and licenses is a great way that Green Industry Professionals can increase their chances of getting and retaining jobs or customers. Our N.C. Cooperative Extension training opportunities have the uniqueness of all being research-based and on the cutting edge. We strive to bring the same level of education that our campus partner, NC State University, is known for; to you at the local level.
