Who Chooses and Pays For Your Veterinary CE?

Most U.S. veterinary professionals are required to complete continuing education (CE) to maintain their professional licenses. But who chooses those CE opportunities, and who pays for them? How are you paid for time away from the clinic? Who decides when you can take CE? This week we discuss the perils and pitfalls of providing veterinary CE for employees - and the dangers of not. Viewfinders, there’s a lot to discuss! Hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, RVT, share stories from their own practices as well as recent awkward scenarios of associate veterinarians and registered veterinary technicians struggling to negotiate and navigate CE benefits. Our hosts also examine the risks of inequitable CE offerings, including non-licensed staff, and why educational opportunities for all staff can benefit your practice. Viewfinders, this is a complicated issue with few easy answers. Please share your thoughts and ideas with us on Facebook and Instagram or at [email protected].
