Any person who holds a certificate and carries out the relevant activities must keep abreast of best practices and undergo continuing education and training.
If necessary, the competent Federal Department may regulate the details of the mandatory continuing education and training, in particular with regard to its scope, content and conditions, as well as the recognition and monitoring of institutions for continuing education and training.
In the case of certificates permitting the professional or commercial use of plant protection products, the continuing education and training must be completed at an institution for continuing education and training recognised by the FOEN.
