About Irrigator Tech
Irrigator Tech Training School was created in the year 2000. It was developed from the basic idea that the Green Industry offered no formal certification or journeyman training for the landscape industry. The landscapers had no irrigation training school to attend to improve their skills and knowledge.
There was no way to prove their knowledge formally when applying for work or seeking job advancement. Our goal is “ Raising Professionalism in the Green Industry” through hands on basic training and services. Learning the correct way, with easy understanding and fun!
