Come experience the future of training for Georgia’s pest management industry! The University of Georgia’s College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, powered by the Digital Innovation Group, has developed a training program that will allow pest management professionals to obtain re-certification and re-registration credit on-line, in the comfort of their home or office. Although anyone, anywhere can attend, CCU/CEU credit is granted for pest management professionals in GA, FL, AL, SC, NC, and TN.
All your computer will need is the ability to access the internet. No special software is needed on your part. Logging on, watching a live online presentation (called a webinar), and then going back to work is just a few mouse clicks away. No more long drives and time off work to acquire credits!
Mark your calendar for the 2014 webinar series (all webinars 8:00 to 10:00 am).
