Pesticide Applicator Training (PAT)

Do you know your Private Applicator Certification expiration date?

County Extension offices will no longer be sending you a letter alerting you of when your certification expires.  Please be aware that you are going to have to be responsible for knowing this.

When is my Expiration Date?

Please check your card to identify when your certification expires.  If you cannot see the date, go to the Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection’s website and look yourself up.  If you are not there, then your certification has expires.  http://www.kellysolutions.com/WI/Applicators/Index.asp

Where do I take the test?

Not all County Extension Offices are giving the Test. (Nearby Taylor County is a participating county.) To find one, go to this website:  https://fyi.extension.wisc.edu/pat/county-testing-sites/

If you are unable to check online yourself, please contact the UW PAT Program (patprogram@mailplus.wisc.edu – 608-262-7588) to help.

What about training?

There will be training with tests provided in select counties in 2023.  There is also online training available this year.  To find training near you:  https://fyi.extension.wisc.edu/pat/events/
