Lifelong learning, once in a lifetime locations

Five conferences. Five places worth the trip.

RACE and NYSED-approved veterinary CE, taught in half-day sessions by board-certified specialists — so the rest of the day belongs to you.

Where we are going

Fifteen hours of RACE-approved CE across three half days, in a group small enough that you can ask your own question. Book your own room and travel; we cover the CE, the materials and your attendance record.
