   Congrats Clay. You must have a great maintenance operation. I teach Hort / Landscape and place a lot of grads into these jobs, usually tree companies, governments, Smithsonian, etc. Really good jobs, starting salaries in the 50-60K range. For the tree companies it is the next step up from climber/tree care worker toward arborist representative (sales) where the salaries are double with commisions. Just google around for job descriptions, they are out there. The industry is moving toward Plant Health Care instead of IPM Tech as your key words. Kenneth Ingram, UMD

   50-60K???
   Wow!
   Do you think my certification as a Carbon Credit Assessor qualifies me for a position as a IPM/Enviro. Specialist?

   Hey Trevor,
   
   You didn't go to Nogales to get this certification like our members do for their meds by chance??

   No, no...nothing like that.
   I took a short course in Holistic Science and had a re-awakening of my ecological imagination.
   You should look into it. The only problem/side effect is the reduction of grey matter.
