WSU Offers Two Types of Pesticide Pre-License Review Webinars
If you are using a pesticide with an “Agriculture Use Requirements” box on it, you are subject to Worker Protection Standard (WPS) requirements. The WPS requires training of certain employees. The person providing training must be qualified to conduct the training. One way for marijuana growers to become qualified is to obtain a Private Applicator’s license. You can study and take the exam without attending a class, however participating in a class increases the exam pass rate. Washington State University (WSU) is offering two types of Pesticide Pre-License Review Webinars.
Webinars for Private Applicators
- Select one of these dates: June 29, July 27, or August 31
- To take exams, you need to register with WSDA for their regular session or with your County Extension (if they are open for appointments).
Webinars for All Other License Types
- Webinar topic options: 1) Laws & Safety or Dealer Manager exams, 2) Weed Management exams, and 3) Insect & Disease exams.
- Webinar dates are July 7, 8 or August 11, 12
- These webinar offerings include a testing session July 9 or August 13 in Olympia, Spokane, and Yakima.
