The University of Alaska Fairbanks Cooperative Extension Service will offer a training session for pesticide applicators April 13-15.
The training will be offered by videoconference in Fairbanks, Anchorage, Soldotna, Palmer, Delta Junction and other communities as requested. Classes will meet from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. with an exam scheduled after the training. Extension and Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation personnel will teach the class.
The state requires certification for anyone who acts as a pesticide consultant or engages in the commercial or contract use of a pesticide. Certification is also required for individuals who use or sell restricted-use pesticides.
The training costs $55 and includes the exam and study materials, which are available through Extension offices. Register for the class online at http://bit.ly/ces-workshops or at Extension offices. Participants are encouraged to become familiar with the materials and math needed prior to the training.
