How we do
continuing education...
Certified Aquascape Contractors are the most qualified and informed pond installers in the water gardening industry. All CACs are required to attend continual training and education seminars and maintain a proven record of outstanding work and dedicated customer service and support.
All pond installers who wish to become Certified Aquascape Contractors must complete an in-depth application that includes an online training program with exam, customer referrals, pictures of completed water features, and general questions about their business and water gardening philosophy. These applications are then reviewed by technical agents at Aquascape, Inc., and then contractors are awarded one of three different levels of CAC status, Basic, Professional, & Master CAC.
