The Entomological Society of America, long the industry leader in certification through its Board Certified Entomologist (BCE) program, also offers a certification option geared specifically toward the pest management industry. People become ACEs for a variety of reasons, but one thing is clear – the ACE program has become the benchmark for professionalism in the pest management industry.
- ACE is for those who are permanent residents of the United States and hold a current applicator's license.
- ACE-International is for those who are not permanent residents of the United States.
The ACE program is endorsed by the National Pest Management Association.
