What Do we Do?
We support and promote the Pest Management Association of NZ as foundation members. We make our industry smarter, safer and superior in terms of meeting legislative requirements, codes of practice, keeping up with the latest technologies and service standards. We do this by providing regional workshops/seminars at the major centres annually.
We have a range of quailied trainers, experts and guest speakers who are required to remain non-partisan during their presentations.
Each high-quality venue (at an easily accessible regional location) has the same daily program which will feature a range of topics. From insect workshops, legislation updates, business mentoring, supplier sessions as well as the opportunity for plenty of peer interaction. All delegates are assessed during the days program so that they can receive a Certificate Of Completion (rather than just a Certificate Of Attendance) which enables them to prove their commitment to continuing education and training. This is required by agencies such as Worksafe and other auditors on an annual basis.
