<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in"><b><i><span style="color:#A02B93">Additional notes:
</span></i></b>Many online course providers work with several states and offer both agricultural and structural recertification courses. Make sure the course you select is approved for Arizona and the appropriate industry. The structural CEU courses are often
listed as “PMD” or “Pest Management Division.” The agricultural CEU courses might be listed as “AG” or “ESD.”
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.25in">Some providers enter attendance data once a month. If you complete a course in late December (ag) or May (structural), print or save a copy of the course completion data. This might be in the form of a printable
certificate on the final course screen or an email from the provider verifying course completion. Keep these records for your own files and proof if needed when you renew your certification.
