Unpublished - Commercial Recertification

2020 Ohio Online Commercial Recertification

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have partnered with the Ohio Department of Agriculture to temporarily provide online credits for Ohio commercial pesticide applicators who need recertification hours for the 2020 deadline. Due to Ohio's State of Emergency, the deadline for commercial recertification credits has been moved to 90 days after the State of Emergency ends, or December 1 - whichever comes first. This course will be available until that deadline.

Register:

Register by the credit hour (e.g., if you need 1/2 hour of credit, register for 1. If you need 3.5 hours of credit, register for 4). You must register online, no phone or mail registration. Check your Recertification Status here or call the ODA at 614-728-6987
