To prepare for the class and exams more thoroughly, participants are encouraged to pre-order their pesticide manuals well in advance of the school by visiting the Pesticide Safety Education page.

Any questions about obtaining a license can be directed to the Pesticide Safety Education Program by emailing pesticide-edu@ncsu.edu or calling 919-515-3113.
Exams are administered at the in-person Pesticide Safety Schools by the N.C. Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (NCDA&CS) on day two from 1:00-5:00 p.m. The exam session is available to all Pesticide Safety School registrants. A few days before the school dates, registrants will receive an email with the exam registration link and a special code to register for the exam(s). Exam fees are separate and must be paid to the NCDA&CS Pesticide Inspector at the exam location by check or money order. For exam-related questions, please contact the NCDA&CS at 984-236-4594 or visit their webpage.
