RE-Certification Information
| Applicators may renew their certification either
by successfully passing the required exam, or by completing at least 12 approved
Continuing Education Units (CEUs). These activities must be completed prior to
expiration of current certification. Exams may be arranged either through the
Cooperative Extension or the ADEC Pesticide Program. CEUs are available through
attendance at a variety of classes, conferences, and meetings, as well as some on-line
courses. Contact the ADEC Pesticide Program to get more
information on approved CEUs. |

Correspondence and home study training is also available on a limited basis.
Certification may be obtained by completing the correspondence/home study course and
successfully passing the required exam. In these cases, certification is valid for only
one year, regardless of test score.
Please contact the ADEC Pesticide Program directly to obtain an
application for correspondence and home study training. The Pesticide Program will send
study materials after the application is complete and an official examination is
scheduled.
There is an annual $25.00 DEC fee to maintain your certification, DEC will mail you an
invoice for this fee.
