Integrated Pest Management Training Courses

The BC Integrated Pest Management (IPM) courses and exams are offered several times throughout the year.

Courses provide information and training for those working in landscaping, grounds maintenance, horticulture, forestry, and related fields to manage pests safely and in an environmentally-conscious manner, according to best practices and current legislation. In addition, this course also prepares students to write the provincial Pesticide Applicator Certificate exam.
