Whether you are a producer who hauls his own pigs in a gooseneck
trailer or straight truck, or if you are a trucker driving a big
rig, this course is for you. The certification will identify you
to producers and meat packers as a transporter who is conscientious
about properly transporting hogs and who understands the value of
producing quality pork products.
The Pork Checkoff introduced the Trucker Quality Assurance Program
in February 2002. TQA encourages dedication to transporting and
delivering the highest quality, safest product possible to remain
competitive in U.S. and world markets and is to be the "consumer's
meat of choice." By completing this program, truckers demonstrate
their commitment to "quality assured" pork transportation and delivery.
