PAACO's fall Meat Plant Training will be held October 19-21, 2026 in Nebraska. All registered attendees will be expected to join us in-person in Nebraksa; there is no option for virtual attendance. 

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.  The course uses the Meat Institute Animal Handling Guidelines. Material and instruction will be presented in English.

Travel logtistics and hotel information will be available in mid-February.
