Online Prep Course and Exam
Since 2007, NPMA guidance on pest management in food facilities has influenced how pest control work is performed in food handling and processing firms. The 2026 revision has been modernized to reflect today’s pest management industry practices, incorporating the latest in integrated pest management efforts and control technology used in sensitive food facilities.
These standards are intended to serve as general guidance for the industry and require the use of independent professional judgement when implementing a pest management plan in food processing and handling facilities. As stated in previous editions, these standards do not preempt local, state, provincial, or federal laws and regulations. Any service provided must comply with relevant statutes and regulations governing pest management, safety and food protection. In addition, food plants may have requirements more stringent than these standards.
This prep course is designed to get you ready to take the exam. Purchase of this bundle includes the standards, the course lesson, and the exam itself.
Successful completion of this exam will earn a certificate of completion that provides evidence of GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices) training.
