BPCA Member Benefits

As part of our commitment to supporting BPCA’s high standards in pest management, we offer all BPCA members six free training days per year. This is an incredible perk that can save you over £1000 annually in training costs. 

You also have complete flexibility in how you use these days: if you’re an individual, you can focus on specialised skills, or if you’re a business, you can use these days to train multiple team members.

Send one person to six different courses, book six team members for a single course, or mix it up: however works best for you!

Why choose PestFix Academy?

We know pest control professionals need training that’s relevant, practical, and adaptable to real-world situations.

Our expert technical manager, Elaine, leads every course at the PestFix Academy, whose extensive industry experience ensures each session is insightful and applicable.

Our courses are brand-neutral, covering techniques and products from all major manufacturers, not just our own. You’ll work hands-on with tools and methods that you already know and trust, making it easy to apply what you learn directly to your daily work.

Plus, with each course, you’ll earn up to 13 CPD points and enjoy a free lunch, making every training day a complete experience.

Don’t just take it from us, here’s some feedback from past course goers:

"Trainer Elaine was fantastic, made the course very enjoyable.

"Great to learn new skills, in a great venue. Great Blend of theory and practical. Inspiring and interesting. Thank you Elaine

"Amazing knowledge by Elaine to leave me with the knowledge to better my works in progress

Need training on site?

While we’d love to welcome you to our academy in Chichester, we know that on-site training may be more convenient for some teams.

That’s why we’re happy to bring our expertise directly to you, so your team can upskill without the need to travel.

So, get ready to learn, earn, and boost your CPD points with PestFix in 2025.

Check out the schedule

Don’t forget, BPCA members also benefit from our BPC8% discount scheme, giving you an exclusive 8% off trade prices on core pest control products throughout the season.

It’s a great way to stock up on essentials while maximising your savings.
