2. I have read, understand and agree (on behalf of the Member or Prospective Member) to the professional standards adopted by the Foundation for designation of a pest control operator as a "QualityPro".
   
   
3. I have also read, understand and agree (on behalf of the Member or Prospective Member) to the Foundation's Bylaws and the Membership Agreement.
   
   
4. Based upon reasonable investigation, I have determined that the Member or Prospective Member complies with the following standards of the Foundation (as shown by a check added to the appropriate box):
   • Business Operations
     • Hiring Standards

5. I certify that the service/sales employees of the Member (or Prospective Members) comply with the professional standards as established by the Foundation.
