The Working Certificate (WC) and Working Certificate Excellent (WCX) tests were established by the Golden Retriever Club of America to encourage the use of and to maintain the natural hunting and retrieving abilities of golden retrievers. They are non-competitive tests of marking and retrieving upland game on land and waterfowl on water.

For more information about and the Rules for the WC/WCX tests, please see the GRCA website: https://www.grca.org/events/field-events-field-training/wcwcx-grcas-working-certificate-wc-and-working-certificate/

***Due to the proximity of the 2024 GRCA National Specialty, the GSGRC will NOT be hosting our combined WC/WCX test this year.  In its place the club will be offering members only training
sessions and a mock test.***
