FDACS Pesticide License & Portal Help Workshop

Need help with your Florida pesticide license?

Navigating the FDACS website and figuring out what you need for your pesticide certification can sometimes be confusing. If you are a new or current pesticide applicator in Florida and need help with the FDACS licensing system, stop by and we can work through it together.

Pesticide applicator certifications and licenses in Florida are administered through the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS).

On April 1, 2025, FDACS launched a new website and user portal. Since then, many applicators have had questions about how to access their accounts, apply for exams, renew their licenses, and find the information they need.

This open, hands-on workshop is designed to help you navigate the new system.

Stop by anytime during the two-hour workshop if you need help with:

• Creating or accessing your FDACS account
• Determining which certification or license you need for a new job
• Applying for an exam voucher
• Scheduling an exam, either in person or online
• Renewing a pesticide certification or license
• Paying invoices through the FDACS portal
• Finding CEU opportunities for license renewal
• Navigating the new FDACS website and user portal

You do not need to stay for the entire two hours. Come when you can, bring your questions, and get the help you need.

A limited number of laptops will be available, but if you have your own laptop, please consider bringing it so you can work directly through your own FDACS account.

Date: December 2
Time: 12:00–2:00 PM
Format: Open workshop — stop by anytime during the session
