Tracking and Database System for a Youth Farm Safety Education and Certification Program

This project is developing, implementing, evaluating and testing the feasibility of an electronic system for tracking information and test results from tractor and machinery certification training being conducted by certified instructors in the United States. Further, a database is being established and maintained that contains information about certified training instructors; certification training sites and dates of instruction; certification status of trained students; on-line versions of task sheets and tests.

It is expected that the outcome from this project will result in an efficient and effective long-term solution to recordkeeping for tractor training and certification.
