Governance
The ESA Certification Corporation operates under a dual governance model, powered by dedicated volunteers from the ESA community:
Governing Board
Composed of ESA Governing Board members and the director of the Certification Board and responsible for budget approval, new program development, and administrative oversight.
Certification Board
A distinguished group of certified entomologists which manage strategic priorities, eligibility criteria, and certification standards. The board includes both BCE and ACE representatives. BCE seats represent the four specialties—Urban & Industrial, Medical & Veterinary, General, and Plant-Related Entomology—as well as non-designated specialties, regardless of the individual’s own specialty.
Leadership
- Director: Laura Krueger, BCE
- Director-Elect: Glen Ramsey, BCE
- Past Director: Wizzie Brown, BCE
ACE Representatives
- Christian Wilcox, ACE
- Samantha Forrest, ACE
