One Continuing Education Unit (CEU) equals (2) credits of educational instruction.
A CEU may be credited to more than one (1) category if it is approved in that(those) category(s); however, an applicator can not receive credit for the same course
An applicator who does not meet recertification credit requirements by the expiration date will no longer be permitted to make pesticide applications until the license is reinstated. The applicator is allowed up to one year to reinstate the license by obtaining the necessary recertification credits and paying the appropriate fees. Should the certification be expired longer than one-year period, reexamination is required for recertification.
OnlinePestControlCourses.com is proud to work with the United States Department of Agriculture, West Virginia Department of Agriculture, the Environmental Protection Agency and the State of West Virginia to provide APPROVED RECERTIFICATION COURSES for applicators.
