Upcoming Pesticide Credit Courses


Private Applicators are required to obtain 2 "X" Credits and 2 "V" Credits before September 30th of their 3rd year or pass the certification exam again.

*If a private applicator has commodity or soil fumigation then 1 of their X credits must come the corresponding soil or commodity fumigation category.


New Required C & T Training for ALL Applicators

If you obtained your certification (passed the Exam) prior to July 1, 2025, you are required to complete a one-time, 1-hour regulatory update. All applicators who complete the training will receive 1 hour of pesticide credit in an eligible category (any category EXCEPT for required category-specific training, such as soil fumigation, commodity fumigation, and aerial).

The Risk: If you miss your standard recertification credit deadline without completing this update, your license will become inactive even if you have all your other required credits.
