Pesticide training offered Jan. 29-31
January 9, 2019
The University of Alaska Fairbanks Cooperative Extension Service will offer pesticide
applicator certification training Jan. 29-31 in several Alaska communities.
The training will take place by videoconference in Fairbanks, Anchorage, Delta Junction,
Palmer, Soldotna and other communities as requested. Classes will meet from 9 a.m.
to 5 p.m., with an exam scheduled after the training.
The state of Alaska requires certification for anyone who purchases, uses or sells
restricted pesticides. Certification is also required for anyone who acts as a pesticide
consultant, engages in the commercial or contract use of pesticides or supervises
their use at a public location.
A $75 fee for the training includes study materials. The workshop will be repeated
April 9-11 in the same communities and other requested locations. Registration for
both trainings is available at http://bit.ly/PestInvasive.
Participants are encouraged to become familiar with the materials and required math
beforehand. For more information and to request another training location, contact
Phil Kaspari at 907-895-4215 or pnkaspari@alaska.edu.
