Who Needs to Get Continuing Education Credits

All Commercial Pesticide Supervisors (any category), and all Private Applicators are required to get 12 credits of continuing education per category per renewal cycle (5 years) as part of their renewal. If a person holds multiple categories, they need at least 12 separate credits per category. Core credits cannot count towards multiple categories (eg. If you have 3 core credits they count for 3 total credits, NOT 3 per category). A certification will not be renewed unless an individual has all of the credit requirements.

Reciprocal Credits- We will accept credits from another state, they have to be approved for pesticide credits in that state and be approved for the category in which you want to use them.

Continuing Education Opportunities for Commercial Pesticide Supervisors and Private Applicators

• 12 credits are required PER category for each time you are renewing. These need to be obtained before your expiration date.
