Recertification

In order to renew a certificate for the upcoming license year a certified applicator must complete a minimum number of Continuing Education Units (CEU’s) each year between July 1 and June 30.

Courses that have been approved for Core credit can be used for satisfying the recertification requirements for any category of certification. Maryland does not require certified applicators to obtain a specific number of credits relating to Core material in order to renew a certificate.

“Maryland applicators may fulfill their full recertification credit requirement using approved online courses once every three years.”
