Professional Soil Scientist CertificationCertification/registration
as a Professional Soil Scientist is provided on the regional level (Society
of Soil Scientists of Southern New England, P.O. Box 258, Storrs, CT 06268)
and the national level (ARCPACS @ www.agronomy.org/certification/soils.html).
Both these organizations require a minimum of 15 credits in soil science
courses, with the stipulation that a breadth of course work is completed,
i.e. courses should be spread over several subgroups in soil science (e.g.
soil chemistry, soil classification and formation, soil physics, soil
microbial ecology, and soil conservation). There are additional educational
requirements to qualify for certification/registration. Check with the
certifying organizations for details.
