Integrated Pest Management Training

If you are a staff member of a licensed child care center in California, and you use any kind of pesticides (including sanitizers or disinfectants to kill germs) then you are required by law to take a Healthy Schools Act class every year.  These classes will teach you about a safer, more sustainable way to manage pests through Integrated Pest Management.

The California Childcare Health Program, in partnership with the Department of Pesticide Regulation, has trained a group of Integrated Pest Management trainers across California. These trainers provide classes that fulfill the required Healthy Schools Act training, either in person or virtually in real time.
