The education requirements for North Carolina licenses have been modified to accommodate the COVID-19 stay-at-home orders.
NC Irrigation Contractor License:
Continuing education is being waived for 2020. Any credits that are earned in 2020 will be carried over to 2021. Learn more here.
NC Landscape Contractor License:
Landscape Contractors’ Board has enacted an emergency rule that removes the usual credit requirement for renewal. No credits are required to renew for 8/1/2020. Any credits taken this year, including the credits from Green & Growin’ 20, will be counted for next year’s seven hour credit requirement (for 8/1/2021) renewal. Learn more here.
NC Pesticide License:
There are no plans to extend credits deadlines for 2020. Applicators will be allowed to earn credits online due to the lack of in-person classes. The board website is here.
International Society of Arboriculture
The International Society of Arboriculture has extended the reporting deadline from June 30, 2020 to October 28, 2020. Learn more here.
