Certification requires TWO steps

1. Completion of a 9-part virtual training module (live or view recorded modules). Once complete, a short learning form must be filled out to share training takeaways.
   
2. Completion of one habitat creation action and one outreach or education action. A similar short form must be filled out to show proof of actions by the following year.

Use of the Pollinator Steward Certification Stamp

Once participants have completed the workshop and Pollinator Partnership has confirmed the Habitat and Education criteria have been met, the Steward will receive a high-resolution Pollinator Steward Stamp. This stamp can only be used by the individual that was certified. The certified individual can not transfer the stamp or certification to anyone else, nor are they able to certify other individuals. The Pollinator Steward Certification (and stamp) show that the individual has a science and lifecycle based understanding of pollinator needs, and understands habitat creation according to those principles. For example, the certified individual can include the stamp on correspondence, email signatures, resumes, and on social media. Contact us if you are interested in certification for an organization.

Pollinator Steward Certified Pins

For participants who are Certified Pollinator Stewards (those that have completed their Step 2 Form and have received their Pollinator Steward Certificate) you are eligible to receive a FREE 1.25" PSC lapel pin! Wear the pin to show your official Pollinator Steward Certification when doing planned outreach or anytime as a conversation starter.
