Abstract
VICE is an alternative to the traditional multi-county Extension in-service that is usually in a large group setting. A step-by-step procedure is outlined that allows a county agent to substitute a visit with a peer agent as legitimate and valuable in-service. Every agent had to: (a) identify programs/tasks in which s/he excelled; (b) schedule an across county lines visit of at least five hours; and (c) make a report of that visit. Results of summative evaluation suggest that this is a positive and productive use of county agent in-service time. VICE = Visits In Counties Everywhere.
