Commercial Pesticide Applicator - Opportunities to Register for Tests
Exams will be offered once a month, every month in our designated exam locations. The exam locations are Garden City, Hays, Olathe, Topeka, and Wichita. If a specific location is not listed, registration is no longer available for that date and time. Upcoming registrations will be posted about 30 days in advance.
Please mark your selection for the general, category and/or subcategory exam(s) during registration. Payment is required at the time of registration to secure your spot but will not be pre-authorized. Payment is processed once the exams are graded and scores submitted.
Commercial applicators can start recertifying by examination starting in October of the year of expiration. The general exam and appropriate category or subcategory exams are required to recertify. The general exam is not a substitute for the core hour or vice versa.
