See the section dealing with Limited Certificate for details. To recertify, a Private Applicator must earn at least one credit in each of the three content areas per category every two years. To recertify in four categories, a grower must earn 12 credits.
Growers can accumulate up to four year's credit.
Agents are advised to assess the category needs of clients in their county when planning courses. Please take advantage of this system to use production meetings, field days and other special sessions to allow clients to earn recertification credits. Please be alert for situations where the content of a course will qualify for recertification of both private and commercial applicators. Non-readers qualify for this type of certificate. Persons with Limited Certificates may recertify at programs with appropriate content.
