Every November they put on a class that you get 5 CEU's for.
Get on the mailing list and you will have way more than enough
CEU's next renewal. We have a little over a 100 people attend every year.

My county agent told me in January, he still gives the test in his office in Shepard, but that was 2 months ago.

That is why I keep my CEUs up so I don't have to retest.
The inspectors are going to randomly checking applicants from the suppliers sales for records
of usage.
