Pesticide Applicator Certification Testing Suspended
Wisconsin Ag Connection - 12/02/2020

Due to COVID-19, the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture is suspending pesticide applicator in-person certification testing until further notice. As a result, the agency is extending current pesticide applicator certifications until December 31, 2021.

The change means that private and commercial pesticide applicators with certifications that expire January 31, 2020 through November 30, 2021 can continue to operate as a certified pesticide applicator until the end of next year.

DATCP and the University of Wisconsin Pesticide Applicator Training Program are working to develop a temporary online certification exam process. This will allow individuals to receive temporary certification as a private or commercial pesticide applicator.

The state typically certifies over 19,000 commercial pesticide applicators and over 12,000 private applicators each year.
