]ANNAPOLIS, Md. —The Entomological Society of America is considering launching a new version of the Associate Certified Entomologist (ACE) credential. Currently the only ACE is designed to help structural pest management professionals establish their credentials, but throughout the years ESA has heard that a similar program targeting the turf, lawn and ornamental professionals was needed. 

ESA has launched a survey “to determine the feasibility of this undertaking.” The survey is 12 questions long and will only take 3-4 minutes to complete.
