The IPM Symposium is an annual event that provides up-to-date information for horticultural professionals on ornamental and turf pest management. This all-day event is designed to give participants direct access to researchers and obtain scientific and practical tools to manage pests effectively.

Participants will enjoy great information featuring live, remote speakers who will be broadcast to our location, an excellent lunch, and networking opportunities from the convenience of a comfortable Charleston County venue.

Take this opportunity to learn about the potential of adding new services to your current service offerings, pest management, and diagnostic tips, and gain CEUs if you are a currently licensed South Carolina pesticide applicator.

Participants must be present for the entire training to be eligible to sign for recertification credits.
