Requires a practical test performed during a hive inspection under the supervision of a Certified or higher level beekeeper. We will be offering the written test to anyone who wants to take it. We request you let us know if you want to attend so we can have enough tests ready. We will also offer the practical test for this level as well. If you want to take this portion you have to have been keeping bees for at least 2 months. If you want to take this test you need to notify us and come prepared with your PPE and a smoker. You can take BOTH tests on this day if you qualify for the practical. Advanced Educational Opportunities for 2024
