Certification > Becoming a Certified Grounds Technician (CGT)
For
those applicants who are directly involved with performing the day-to-day
tasks of grounds maintenance, PGMS offers a certification program.
A training
manual is provided so that candidates may have the
opportunity to study and prepare for the exam. Once the candidate
is ready to take the exam, they must call the PGMS and tell us the
