Treasure Valley Community College Equine Program


Training Quality Assurance

Take the Reins on a New Career

TQA’s certifications are only offered through Treasure Valley Community College in Ontario OR. This page covers the unique degrees and pathway certifications offered through TVCC and how TQA’s Industry Certifications are imbedded into the TVCC degrees. TVCC’s Equine Program is designed to give you real-world experience working with these incredible animals. In our program, you’ll work directly with horses and cows and most of your education takes place in barns, on the ranch, or in the arena. Our approach not only help you be more successful obtaining employment and a career working in the equine industry, but we’ve found it also appeals to students who prefer getting out of the traditional classroom setting. Combine the skills and love you have for horses with a program that will help you gain even more knowledge and expertise.
