The ASIC CPIC.

The mark of independent, professional irrigation consulting expertise.

What is the ASIC CPIC?

The credential that says independent expert.

The Certified Professional Irrigation Consultant (CPIC) is the only credential dedicated to independent irrigation consultants. Held exclusively by ASIC Professional Members, it certifies that the holder has the technical depth, practical experience, and professional independence to advise on irrigation projects without a vendor allegiance.

Why It Matters

What hiring a CPIC actually means.

When a CPIC stamps your project, you get more than a signature — you get an advocate for the owner, the design, and the long-term performance of the system.

Vendor-Independent

CPICs work without product or supplier allegiance — recommendations are based on what fits your project, not who pays a commission.

Verified Expertise

Every CPIC has passed a rigorous exam grounded in the ASIC Body of Knowledge — covering hydraulics, scheduling, controls, water management, and more.

Real-World Practice

Eligibility requires years of independent consulting experience — not just classroom hours. CPICs have actually run the projects you are trying to deliver.

Ongoing Education

CPICs maintain their credential through continuing education, keeping current on codes, water-efficiency standards, and emerging technologies.
