Apprentice testing will involve in-hive testing. Please remember to bring your own bee suit, gloves, hive tool, lighter, and smoker. We will provide smoker fuel, but if you have a fuel that you are most comfortable using, then please bring that with you as well. Proper clothing is required. Any participants dressed in inappropriate clothing (shorts, sandals, etc.), without adequate protective gear, will not be permitted to take the exam.
Advanced & Master Level testing does not involve in-hive testing, so no bee suit or other gear is required.
Registration is set to close: Monday, September 14th at 11:59 pm.
