Quality Certification Services Inc. (QCS) will be conducting two Meter Technician Training Schools in 2023. These schools will be held in Idaho and in California, with final details available in January 2023.
This school will provide training in the maintenance, operation and calibration of all ICAR-certified portable milk meters. It is an excellent opportunity for meter technicians, both new and experienced, to refine their meter care skills and network with other meter technicians. The meter technician training school provides classroom instruction and hands-on work with various ICAR/National DHIA-certified milk meters. We will review all certified meter models but focus on Auto Samplers and Ezi-Test meters that are commonly used by those in attendance.
The auditing guidelines require that a meter technician must attend
a meter technician training school at least once every five years to
retain certification. The QCS website (www.quality-certification.com)
has a current list of all certified meter technicians and the last MTTS
attended. Please note that attendance is limited to ensure an effective
class size.
QCS is committed to provide this educational opportunity for meter technicians
each year in a different geographic region of the country. In addition
to training and support from QCS and manufacturer representatives, QCS
will be focusing on meter center design and upkeep, and effectively managing
parts and replacement costs.
Registration is $300 and will include (with the support of our partners) meter technician manual, breaks, lunches and dinners. Travel, hotel fees and incidentals are the responsibility of the attendee.
