Georgia Pre-Examination Training Program©
The Georgia Department of Agriculture is enforcing the requirement that all structural pest management companies that conduct structural pest control in Georgia must provide and document the training required by the Rules of the Georgia Structural Pest Control Commission. All new service and sales employees must receive 10 hours of classroom training and 70 hours of on-the-job training prior to the new employee taking the Employee Registration Exam. There is a special training form where this training must be recorded. State Regulatory Field Inspectors may ask to see these records for any new employee for a period of two years after the training was conducted.
The Georgia Pre-Examination Training Program© has been reviewed and approved as meeting the requirement of the Rules of the Georgia Structural Pest Control Commission and is the simplest way for a company to provide new employees with the information required in the 10 hours of classroom training. If you are interested in finding out more about this valuable training program, please contact Terry W, Bowen by calling him at 770-557-2704, emailing him at [email protected], or by completing the website submission form. You can see a sample video below.

OSHA Compliance Assistance
