COMMERCIAL APPLICATORS - INITIAL CERTIFICATION

HOW DO I GET CERTIFIED?

Certification of commercial applicators is generally a two-step process. Applicators seeking certification will take a Core examination that addresses fundamentals of pesticide use and at least one category exam that relates to their field of professional interest.
