Please remember to bring your SAF or CF number to apply for credits. If you forgot your license number, you may use the last 4 digits of your social security number. Check the OISC applicator site to confirm your CCH credits. It may take a few weeks to post on your records, and recognize that when your 5-year recertification occurs, your credit balance will return to zero. Questions about your credit balance and certification should be addressed to the OISC. If you signed the workshop form at the end of the program, I can provide you with proof of attendance for this program if needed. https://inplants.oisc.purdue.edu/USAPlantsIN/SecurityLogin.aspx
