Quality counts program
All new exhibitors are required to complete a safety and ethics course provided by the Texas Extension Service. All of the enrollment information can be found here:
Here are a couple of new components of the program to be aware of:
Exhibitors will first be required to engage in the full learning content before being presented with the verification exam.
Please be aware of this in advance as this could take around two hours for most students to complete the full content and test.
Exhibitors will be able to start and revisit the curriculum as many times as needed.
Exhibitors will have to complete the test once it is started.
Exhibitors must achieve 80% or great to pass the exam, but can take it as many times as needed.
Exhibitors will be exposed and tested on the content potentially three times in their livestock showing career: junior (grade 3-5), intermediate (grade 6-8), and senior (grade 9-12).
Exhibitors will access the course and exam at a new website: https://www.texaslivestockvalidation.com/qc/qcregister.aspx
