Ensuring Animal Welfare Auditor Training and Standards

Prior to Professional Animal Auditor Certification Organization (PAACO), established in 2004, there was no standardization or accreditation for animal welfare auditing.

Since then, PAACO has trained auditors to serve the swine, dairy, poultry, beef cattle, and feedlot industries. In the process, PAACO provides much needed expertise, consistency, and required training.

PAACO has become the authority on animal welfare auditing, providing high-quality training and certification credentials for auditors and audits.

PAACO’s trainers are industry icons, people who work in animal welfare and have extensive experience in their area of expertise as well as auditing.
