Certified Irrigation Technician (CIT) Program

• Increasingly, professionally designed and maintained landscapes are recognized as integral to property values. Irrigation is an essential part of maintaining that investment.
• Responsible water management is now an important part of sound environmental practices.
• New technologies have made irrigation systems more affordable and easier to operate and maintain than ever before.

For these reasons and more, the irrigation industry has witnessed unprecedented growth over the past decade and will continue to expand into the future. As more and more people and companies enter the irrigation field, a general lack of knowledge of appropriate system design, proper installation and maintenance procedures and an inconsistency in pricing structures threatens the reputation of the industry overall.

Landscape Ontario’s Irrigation Commodity Group addresses these concerns through its Certified Irrigation Technician program.

Developed by a group of industry professionals, this independent study and examination program has been established to verify an individual’s skill level.
