Surveys
One Hour Credit Positive Points Surveys: Avocado, Citrus and Nursery
These are the pdf files of the three surveys we offer. There are instructions
on them stating that you have to submit your answers to Amy Ellis at the
address listed below in order to get your one hour of education credit. Any questions should also be directed to her. In the case of the nursery
survey, they need the entire document. For the two orchard surveys,
they just need the answer sheets at the end of the survey.
