This page covers the curriculum to meet state and local agency requirements to be recognized as a credentialed Technical Large Animal Rescue Technician. Please note that completion of Emergency Horse and Livestock Handling is a prerequisite for certification.
This credentialing module is divided into two segments: LRTC Distance Learning, and two days of hands-on Exercises. During COVID we converted our classroom section into on-line distance learning, which turned out to be more convenienent for students as they could proceed through those elements at their convenience. The Distance Learning module will conclude with a quiz that can be taken "open book." (You can review the material if you aren't sure of an answer. Assistance with any of these elements can be obtained by Emailing Megan McCoy.
This index will be expanded as additional videos are completed.
The hands-on exercises will put into practice the distance learning concepts. Helmets, gloves, appropriate clothing for handling rescue equipment and appropriate shoes or boots are required. TLAR exercises start promptly at 0800 Hours. Participants are advised to arrive early to sign-in so the exercises can start on time. Participants need to register in advance to attend.
(A second TLAR class is not currently scheduled for 2026.)
Additional specific-subject short programs and exercises are scheduled for 2026. They include:
Additional subject matter training sessions will be scheduled.
In order to earn certification you must take the following quiz. It is "open book," meaning that you may review videos in the event you are unsure of an answer. Passing score is 80%.
We will provide correct answers for any missed questions after the quiz is scored.
