University of Illinois’ Pesticide Safety Education Program (PSEP) will not offer in-person training during fall 2020 or spring 2021. The decision to cancel in-person training was based on the health of not only clinic attendees, but the staff and the surrounding community with whom we share spaces. In place of in-person training, we plan to offer the following resources to individuals preparing for Illinois Pesticide Certification Exams during the COVID-19 pandemic:Training Option A: Online Training In place of PSEP’s in-person training clinics, online courses will be made available for most of our traditional training categories. To best serve our diverse clientele, the courses are designed to be completed asynchronously (i.e. on your own schedule and at your own pace). Each course will guide you through lessons instructed by PSEP specialists, and keep you engaged with plenty of exam-prep questions along the way.   Training Option B: Self-Study Publications If you would rather study with a pen and paper instead of an iPad, PSEP has an option for you as well. Training Manuals are available for each category of licensure. Accompanying fill-in-the-blank-style workbooks are available for common categories, which will help guide you through the manual and prepare you for the associated exam.
