The Versatility Titles
The Six venues of competition are: Conformation, Field, Hunt, Obedience/Rally, Tracking, and Agility, plus an “other category” where new sports and activities are added on a trial basis.
The Versatility Certificate (VC) is awarded to a dog who has received at least 7 points from 3 of the 7 categories, including at least one 4 point or greater achievement from one of the categories. Any of the 7 venues could contribute to the points, but at least one venue must include a 4 point or higher award. At least one point must come from the Field or Hunt categories with Field broke points or a JH earned.
The GSPCA Versatility Advanced Certificate (VCA) requires 11 points from 4 of the 7 venues, including at least two 4 point or higher achievements from the different categories. At least one point must come from the Field or Hunt categories with Field broke points or a JH earned. Points can be earned from any of the 6 categories. Since four areas are required, some regard the VCA more difficult than the VCX.
The GSPCA Versatility Certificate Excellent (VCX) is considered the TOP TITLE! This is the “original” program that started the Versatile awards in 1998! It is not point based like the VC and the VCA. At least one point must come from the Field or Hunt categories with Field broke points or a JH earned.
