Membership

.

Did you know? Three years of PAPA membership costs less than it costs to be a CAPCA member for just one year! 

As of January 1, 2025, current PAPA members receive the following benefits:

• Tracking of your PAPA CE hours — we are no longer able to track hours earned with other CE sponsors for any license type. 
• New in 2025: We are able to track PAPA CE hours for PCAs! We are also still tracking PAPA CE hours for QACs and QALs.
• Discounts on our CE seminars and webinars.
• Priority registration for our CE seminars and webinars.
• Waitlists for sold out seminars and webinars are available to members only. 
• Quarterly editions of our e-newsletter, Applicators News.
• A summary of your CE hours earned with PAPA mailed to you in the summer of your renewal year.

We can now track PAPA CE hours for QACs, QALs, PCAs, and Pilots starting January 1, 2025. We cannot track any hours prior to January 1, 2025 for PCAs or Pilots, even if they also have a QAC/QAL.

Membership Policies: Memberships must be purchased on an individual basis — we do not offer company memberships. Membership must be paid before, or at the same time as, a CE course in order to receive the membership discount on the CE course. Discounts are then applied to the rest of the CE courses purchased for that calendar year. Discounts cannot be applied retroactively. PAPA memberships are annual and cover hours tracking for eligible members from January 1st – December 31st of the respective year, regardless of the date the membership is purchased. Membership benefits are subject to change without notice.

Please note: PAPA does not, and cannot, submit proof of your CE hours to DPR on your behalf for your renewal, regardless of your membership status. Please note that DPR is no longer accepting our official reports as a substitute for the Continuing Education Record Renewal Summary form. You must complete the Continuing Education Record Renewal Summary form of the DPR packet when submitting your renewal to DPR. Current PAPA members may request assistance in filling out the DPR form by emailing certificates@papaseminars.com. 

Payment Options: You may pay online with a debit/credit card or eCheck. You must be signed in to your account before you can process a payment online. For card payments by phone, please call 831-442-3536. We no longer accept mailed checks or payments via email. We do not accept purchase orders. If ACH/EFT is your only payment option, PAPA will enroll. Please send all necessary enrollment documents to info@papaseminars.com. 

Refund & Cancellation Policy: PAPA does not offer refunds or cancellations for membership purchases.

Thank you for becoming a PAPA member! We look forward to serving you!
