Project Proficiencies

The 4-H Proficiency Program helps you learn what you need to know in your 4-H project.  Your project leader will assist you in setting and achieving your goals. 

There are five levels in the Project Proficiency Program:  Explorer, Producer, Consumer, Leader, and Researcher.  You may choose how many levels you wish to complete.  As you work through the proficiency program, your leader will date each skill item as you complete it.  When all items in a proficiency level are completed, your leader will initial the Certificate of Achievement.
