On April 16, 2021, renewals were posted under each operator’s individual details in the Iowa DNR Operator Certification Database. Renewal notifications will be sent out via the US Postal Service on May 3 and 4.
We encourage operators to renew online using a credit card or electronic check. Submission of payment online instantaneously renews a certificate.
Continuing Education (CEU) Renewal Requirements:
Continuing Education hours are still being reported to the IDNR. If your CEUs do not show up online after May 1st, please contact Elizabeth Feilmeier at 515-725-0284 or [email protected].
For renewal on June 30, 2021, you are required to earn the amount of CEUs required by the certificate(s) you held on April 1, 2019. If you are not required to earn CEUs this renewal period, you still must renew your certificate by paying the appropriate fee.
