North Carolina pest control continuing education
North Carolina structural and pesticide credentials require continuing education credits to stay certified. How many you need, and in which phase or category, depends on your license. Your NCDA&CS records are the final word.

How North Carolina credit will work
- Structural and pesticide credit are separate
- Structural pest control credit is counted in CCUs: some in your own phase (Household Pest P, Wood-Destroying Organisms W, or Fumigation F) and the rest from any approved structural course. Pesticide credit is counted by applicator category, such as Ornamental and Turf.
- One hour, one credit
- One credit equals one hour of approved training. Structural courses are approved in whole hours, each counting toward one category; pesticide credit also allows half credits for 25 minutes or more. Each of our courses is built for 2 credit hours.
- Approved courses carry a course code
- NCDA&CS approves courses for a period ending June 30 and assigns each a course code. Until a course has its code, it can't be taken for credit, which is why these show Coming soon.
- We report your attendance
- When you pass an approved course, we report your attendance to NCDA&CS using the license details you give at enrollment. For structural credentials, that is the license type and file number on your NCDA&CS ID card.
Requirements for your own license come from the NCDA&CS Structural Pest Control & Pesticides Division and your NCDA&CS records. This page is general information, not legal advice.
