Vet Ed points

Approve my event

If you're running a continuing professional development activity or event for veterinarians, you can apply for Vet Ed approval from the AVA. There are several reasons why having Vet Ed approval is a good idea.

Vet Ed approval includes:

• evaluation and approval of your continuing professional development material by the AVA National Education Team
• permission to use the AVA Vet Ed logo on your advertising material and to promote how many Vet Ed points AVA members can earn by attending your event
• advertising on the online AVA Vet Ed calendar
• advertising in the upcoming events section of the AVA’s eNewsletter (eLine)
• automatic loading of AVA member points to their Vet Ed statement once the National Education Team has received the details from the event organiser
• ongoing recognition as the continuing professional development provider on delegates Vet Ed statements
• a guarantee that your Vet Ed approved events will receive points that are accepted by the state registration boards.
