All 4-H/FFA members wanting to show market beef, market sheep, market swine, meat and dairy goats, dairy cattle, poultry, and rabbits at county fair, State Fair, or the Ak-Sar-Ben 4-H Stock Show must complete Quality Assurance training. Horse exhibitors and livestock exhibitors showing only breeding animals do not have to complete it.
Again this year, the Quality Assurance certification is online. In the past youth must have completed an in person training; now everything is online. This new format will be more user friendly, youth will complete activities that pertain to their age (no more sitting through a class where it is either over your head or way to simple for you), and youth will be able to complete the trainings at their own pace and time allotment. As always this must be done by June 15.
Instructions are online at http://4h.unl.edu/qualityassurance and will be mailed to club leaders. Please pass along all of this information to youth in your club who will need to be QA certified. If you have any questions regarding this new format, contact Cole at cmeador2@unl.edu or 402-441-7180.
