Frequently asked questions
New tech? Florida requires 4 hours of initial training — separate from the annual 2.+
Per Fla. Stat. §482.091(10), a technician's one-time 4-hour initial classroom training must be completed within 6 months after the ID card is issued (or within 2 years before issuance). After that, 2 hours of continuing training each renewal year. Most companies only know about the 2-hour annual — see /technicians for the full breakdown.
When is my renewal due?+
Certified operators renew on the 1-year anniversary of the certificate's issue date (per ch. 2024-137, effective July 1, 2024 — the old June 1 deadline is obsolete). Technicians renew annually on the licensee's anniversary date, set by FDACS per business location.
Does FDACS accept these CEU hours?+
Yes. Pest Education is a registered Florida continuing education provider. Every course carries an FDACS approval number and is accepted toward your license renewal under Chapter 482.
How long do I have to complete a course?+
Once you enroll, the course stays open on your dashboard indefinitely. Florida requires a minimum seat time — the timer tracks your active reading time so you always meet the requirement.
What if I fail the final quiz?+
You can retake the quiz as many times as you need at no extra charge. The passing score is 75%. Your best attempt is recorded.
Do I get a certificate right away?+
The moment you pass, a signed CEU certificate is emailed to you and saved to your dashboard. You can also generate the FDACS-13325 attendance form directly from your dashboard.
Can I use these hours for multiple license categories?+
Each course is approved for a specific FDACS category (e.g., GHP, L&O, Termite/WDO, Fumigation). If you hold licenses in multiple categories, you'll need to complete a course for each category you want to renew.
Limited Urban Fertilizer (LUF) — what do I need?+
Florida's Limited Urban Commercial Fertilizer Applicator certification (§482.1562) renews every 4 years and requires 4 CEU hours: 2 hours Core (Chapter 482) plus 2 hours Limited Urban Fertilizer. Both are passed at 75% and documented on the FDACS-13325 Record of Attendance. Our LUF course is built and awaiting final FDACS approval — join the notify list on the course page and we'll email you the moment it's live. In the meantime the Core course is enrollable today.
