PAACO Meat Plant Welfare Auditor Training May 2023 - SD
PAACO's spring Meat Plant Training will be held May 22-24, 2023 in NW Iowa. It will be conducted in a hybrid format, meaning there is an option to join us in-person or virtually. All registered attendees will be expected to join us in-person unless approved by PAACO. In order to attend virtually, you will need to request that prior to registering by emailing Dakota dthomas@animalauditor.org. International attendees and those with specific circumstances will be given priority to the virtual seats.
The course will be a combination of classroom curriculum and "hands-on" learning through site visits. In-person attendees will visit both a pork plant a nd beef plant to gain hands-on experience while instructors are present. Virtual attendees will be shown video footage while instructors dicuss various points. The course uses the NAMI Animal Handling Guidelines. Material and instruction will be presented in English.
