🙌🏼Applications are now being accepted for Class VI of Leadership SCPCA.

💙We are thrilled to be planning for the next class of this incredible program. Classes I, II, III, IV and V have made valuable impacts in our association and our industry. Many graduates now hold board, committee and executive leadership roles within SCPCA.

The South Carolina Pest Control Association consistently faces challenges regarding our profession with technology, management practices, training, regulatory changes and customer service.

During this program participants will be exposed to new insights about themselves, others and the world around them in a range of aspects from policy to personality.

The intent of this program is to broaden the perspective of the participants and entrust them to become engaged leaders in the pest control industry. By becoming involved at different levels and understanding the importance of that involvement, the participant will be better prepared to eventually communicate and formulate policy change.

Part of our selection process is to look for those candidates that exhibit leadership qualities and demonstrate potential for long term leadership.

🤩Program Highlights

The program will encompass 3 seminars and a graduaction event, spanning six months. Seminars will be two-day courses and, in some cases, will overlap other industry events at the same location.

The grand result of this experience will help you to prepare as a leader not only for the association in officer roles but as a leader within your own organization.
