Attention, new and Established Pesticide Applicator Businesses, Applicators and Operators: You may take this class for recertification credit or as a "Basic Pesticide Training Course." Class is offered at Trenton testing site only.

Remember that before you enter into business for yourself, you must first register that business with the Pesticide Control Program. If you are a little uneasy about all the pesticide regulations, you're not alone. Many businesses are worried about a first time inspection. That is why the Bureau of Pesticide Compliance is offering an optional (and free!) program designed to teach you everything you need to do to avoid costly penalties for not following the regulations properly.

The program, or mini class, will be taught by the Senior Inspectors of the Pesticide Control Program. Topics to be covered are: proper licensing for all members of your business, record keeping, proper maintenance of pesticide storage areas, service vehicle requirements and how to comply with the current notification requirements. No violations will be cited for non-compliance noted during the class (the purpose will be to inform and educate, not issue citations).

Sign up by mailing or faxing a completed Class Registration Form to the PCP office as described in the form.

You can also sign up by e-mail. Include the following items in your message:
