Pinpoint Canine Certifications
PCD provides a certification for two primary roles in bed bug detection. These certifications reflect the expertise needed in order to effectively execute bed bug detection work.
Our certified teams can be verified upon request and require annual renewal to validate best in industry capability in both the inspectors as well as the detection teams.
PCD certifications incorporate military working dog guidelines as well as Drug Enforcement Agency detection certification standards. We test in 3 random in-field locations that reflect real working environments. The certification is administered by our Master Trainer or Certified Tester-Observer.
