Everblue, a leading provider of online certification management solutions, is pleased to announce the expansion of its services with the MA Department of Agricultural Resources (MDAR) to include a new training course for the invasive Lanternfly. This collaboration builds upon Everblue's trusted role in managing the state’s pesticide certification exams and renewals, utilizing the EverCert software platform to streamline and automate the credentialing process for Massachusetts contractors.
Everblue’s expertise in managing complex certification processes has made them a reliable partner to the state. With a focus on education technology (EdTech), Everblue has been instrumental in transforming how the state handles pesticide exams and renewals. Through the EverCert software, Everblue’s innovative, automated solution has allowed the state to digitize and host certification exams, offer 24/7 on-demand testing and streamline administrative tasks.
Now, Everblue is expanding its services to include training for a new environmental challenge: the Lanternfly, an invasive species threatening the agricultural and natural resources of Massachusetts. The state, already familiar with Everblue’s trusted exam management system, has chosen to partner with Everblue to provide a comprehensive training program to address this growing concern.
The Lanternfly training course, integrated with the state’s existing systems, will provide Massachusetts contractors with the essential knowledge to identify, manage and mitigate the impact of this invasive pest. The course will be delivered through Everblue’s robust Learning Management System (LMS), offering flexibility and convenience to participants across the state. By expanding the relationship, the state aims to create a seamless experience for contractors, combining training and certification in one integrated solution.
Everblue has established a reputation for delivering flexible, secure and scalable solutions. The same level of commitment to excellence that Everblue has demonstrated in other projects is now being applied to the Massachusetts Lanternfly training initiative. Everblue’s expansion into training underscores their dedication to not only meeting but exceeding the needs of their clients.
“Everblue is proud of the trust we’ve built with the state of Massachusetts,” said Jamie Zelenak-Hyre, training and testing systems administrator at Everblue. “Expanding our services to include the Lanternfly training course is a natural next step in our partnership. We look forward to continuing to support Massachusetts in addressing environmental challenges, empowering contractors and ensuring they are equipped with the knowledge and skills to succeed.”
