Clark County 4-H will be hosting a YQCA in-person training on June 9 at 5:30 p.m. at the Clark County Extension Office. Youth can sign up for this $3.00 in-person training at yqcaprogram.org, or may take the $12 online course. This training must be done yearly.

4-H members enrolled in dairy and beef cattle, swine, sheep, and goats must take the Youth for the Quality Care of Animals (YQCA) certification annually. All registrations and payments are handled through the YQCA website, not the Extension Office. If you cannot attend this $3 in-person training, you must complete the $12 online version of the class and provide the Extension Office with your certificate number or a screenshot of a completion certificate by July 1, 2026.
