UF/IFAS Extension offers classes to help you prepare for your professional license exams in addition to keeping you already certified professionals sharp with your continuing education. We offer classes that are more specific to certain professional licenses, and on 8/13/20, we are offering a virtual class in the category of Ornamental and Turf and Private Agricultural Applicator. This class is intended to provide a review of important concepts for prospective pesticide applicators preparing to take their licensing exam, in addition to providing continuing education units (CEUs) for individuals to maintain their licenses. The Ornamental & Turf license is for individuals who apply or supervise the application of restricted-use-pesticides to golf courses, athletic fields, parks, and cemeteries. The Private Ag license is for individuals who apply or supervise the application of pesticides to agricultural products on private property such as a nursery, greenhouse, or grove. This review is not a substitute for studying!
