In 1994 the USET decided to combine the USET Medal Program with the USET Show Jumping Talent Search Program. This name change better reflects the focus of the program by asking developing riders to meet a more difficult set of standards than required in other competitions, thus helping to prepare them for berths on future USET Show jumping Squads.

A very demanding competition, the BET/USET Show Jumping Talent search Finals attracted the nation's top Juniors and Young Riders in head-to-head competition. The Finals are open to U.S. Citizens 21 years old and younger who have qualified through their placement in regional BT/USET Show Jumping Talent search Classes and are carefully orchestrated to test the entrants' skills in the show jumping arena. By focusing on skills, which are judged with regard to execution and technique as it relates to performance, riders must show that they understand and can successfully solve problems presented to them as they compete in four varied and difficult phases.
