The training sessions listed on this page are for those seeking a new pesticide applicator license or adding a new category to an existing license. Each session provides a review of the content presented in our study manuals for the applicator categories being offered, plus an opportunity to take the NDA-administered certification exams required to become a commercial or noncommercial applicator (or add a category to a private, commercial, or noncommercial license). To attend an initial training session, you must preregister online ahead of time.
Select a training session based on:
- location, and
- the applicator categories offered.
You can certify in General Standards (category 00, required for all commercial/noncommercial applicators) plus one applicator category per session.
If you have questions about the registration process, please email us at pested@unl.edu
