Understanding Kentucky CEU and Applicator Certification Requirements
Kentucky pesticide certification and licensing requirements vary according to the type of pesticide application and the certification category. The Kentucky Department of Agriculture administers pesticide licensing and approves continuing education programs. The University of Kentucky also provides educational resources for commercial, noncommercial, and private applicators.
For structural pest control professionals, the applicable requirements differ by certification category. Kentucky's regulations specify the following continuing education requirements over three years:
Kentucky structural certification category Required continuing education
Category 7A – Structural Pest Control 15 CEUs
Category 7B – Structural Fumigation 9 general CEUs plus 3 category-specific CEUs
Category 8 – Public Health Pest Control 12 CEUs, including 9 general and 3 category-specific CEUs
These requirements are based on Kentucky's applicable regulations for structural pest control and related categories.
Before enrolling in Kentucky pesticide applicator training for renewal purposes, review the following:
● Category eligibility: Confirm that the training applies to the certification you hold.
● Approved CEU status: Verify that the specific course or event is approved by KDA for the required credit.
● Credit requirements: Check how many general and category-specific credits you need.
● Renewal deadlines: Confirm the applicable renewal period and deadlines.
● Completion records: Keep certificates and other documentation needed to track completed training.
PPU's general course descriptions should not be interpreted as confirmation of Kentucky CEU approval. Check the current Kentucky Department of Agriculture training and testing resources and the Kentucky pesticide certification regulations for official information.
