BQA launches new transportation program

The checkoff-funded Beef Quality Assurance (BQA) program has launched a new training and certification program for cattle transportation. The program, known as Beef Quality Assurance Transportation (BQAT), provides cattle producers and haulers with comprehensive training based on their roles in the cattle industry. The program offers training and certification programs for all sectors of the industry: cow-calf; stocker; and feed yard. This is the first time a nationally-recognized certification has been offered for the transportation segment of the industry. Online training for BQAT will be offered in two different modules: Farmer/Rancher and Professional. To begin training or learn more, visit www.bqa.org.
