Becoming a Beef Quality Assurance Certified Producer is a four step process.
1) Obtain a Mid-Atlantic BQA Manual (hard copy or On-line)
2) Attend or view the BQA Lecture Series (On-line learning modules or CD)
BEFORE CONTINUING TO THE CHUTE-SIDE TRAINING ALL MODULES MUST BE COMPLETED OR A COURSE ATTENDED!
3) Attend a Chute-Side Training Event
4) Sign the BQA Producer Agreement
All four parts can be taken during a 4 hour BQA Certification Training offered in your area or you can do steps 1 & 2 at home. Note you may not proceed to step 4 until you have completed a Chute-Side Training Event (step 3). Step 4 may be completed after the Chute Side Training.
For more information about a BQA Certification Training or Chute-Side Training Event contact your county agent or Jason Carter or Rodney Leech.
