The Indiana 4-H Quality Livestock Care (QLC) Program is a replacement for in-person YQCA Classes. All 4-H youth enrolled in a LIVESTOCK PROJECT (Beef, Dairy Beef, Dairy, Goat, Poultry, Rabbit, Sheep and Swine) must be QLC certified or have a YQCA online completion certificate.
If you choose to complete the YQCA option, you will register for the online course at https://yqcaprogram.org/. The cost of the online YQCA course is $12. After completing the course, you must email the 4-H Educator with your certification to receive credit.
If you prefer to take the QLC in person (instructor-led) course, the cost is $3 per child and it will be held at the DeKalb County Fairgrounds Exhibit Hall. Registration is open on 4-H Online.
QLC training sessions will be held:
Monday, Mar 6, 7:00pm
Monday, Mar 27, 2:00pm
Saturday, May 13, 10:00am
Saturday, Aug 5, 9:00am
After attending the course or submitting a YQCA online training certificate, you will be marked complete in the DeKalb 4-H Hub (Fall Fair Checklist).
Note that this certification does NOT replace the workshop/worksheet requirement.
