Choosing to become certified through IJCSA for green cleaning is part of my professional development within this industry. Accountants, Lawyers, and Doctors don't simply pass a final exam and then stop learning. In fact, these all have requirements for continuing their education each year. If you are serious about the health and safety of your clients, your employees, and your own family, then seeking out further professional development should be part of your journey.

I stepped away from a 25 year career in corporate finance and accounting to make a professional change in my own life. The cleaning industry is where I see the widest gap in experience, knowledge base and general care (or the lack thereof) for truly being responsible for what and how you clean for an individual, family, or business.

There are many avenues to get to or achieve certain goals. The way you define success for example, or for this article, the way you define clean. This determines the level of success you are aiming to achieve. By pursuing the Green Cleaning Certification through IJCSA, then you are saying to yourself and to others that you want to be a subject matter expert in your field. Someone who can be trusted and relied upon for delivering quality for the health and safety of the environment you are entrusted with.

As you know, a true professional makes it look easy. By getting certified and gaining the fundamental knowledge base offered through such a program, you are making yourself and your company an easy decision for anyone seeking cleaning services within your geographical area. Listing on the IJCSA business directory is part of this process and in helping clients locate and verify your commitment to excellence.
