Getting DPR CEUs

The Cal-IPC Symposium offers continuing education units (CEUs) for California licensed pesticide applicators. CEUs have been approved by the California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR).

The 2026 Symposium offered:

  • 2 CEUs for Herbicide Laws & Regulations

  • 15 CEUs for Other credit, including eligible Workshops (additional fee required) and the free Statewide WMA Meeting

 

To receive CEUs, be sure to add DPR CEUs to your registration and enter your pesticide applicator license number. The additional CEU fee covers staff time required to process and report credits.

 

In-person attendance requirements for DPR credit: Sign in and pick up a stamp card at the DPR table near the registration table each morning. Immediately after each session that qualifies for DPR credit, be sure to get your stamp before leaving the room. At the end of each day, turn in your stamp card to collect your DPR certificates. Note that for concurrent sessions, you cannot switch attendance between two sessions.

Online attendance requirements for DPR credit: You must attend the entire livestream, participate in all DPR polls (not anonymously), and complete the DPR quiz posted in the chat during the last five minutes of each session with a passing score of 70% or higher. Note that for concurrent sessions, you cannot switch attendance between two sessions.

You may need to refresh the page to see the latest chat messages and polls. We recommend watching the livestream on a desktop as well as using the mobile app to participate in polls, chat, and Q&A if the page refreshes slowly. We strongly recommend against watching sessions on a mobile device, especially while traveling or in areas with unreliable service. DPR credit-seekers are expected to be fully present and engaged while attending sessions.

Once the Symposium is over, we compile Zoom and Whova attendance records, poll responses, and quiz scores. Please enter your email address carefully during the quizzes, as typos can delay processing. Attendees who qualify for DPR credit will receive their certificates within two weeks of the Symposium. We will also notify attendees who completed a DPR quiz but did not qualify for credit for that session.

 

Full instructions for obtaining your CEUs are available here.
