Tennessee CEUs

All courses are approved by the Tennessee Department of Agriculture as “External” training.

Commercial Pesticide Applicators have a 3-year renewal period. All Continuing Education Credits (CEU’s) are due by June 30th.

*PLEASE NOTE: CEU’s can be taken 100% via online courses, but you cannot take more than 75% of the required credits within a single course. Continuing Education Credits cannot all be earned within a single year.*

Step‑by‑Step Tennessee License Renewal Guide
