When you think of Kauai in October, you likely picture the rugged Napali Coast, golden sunrises over Poipu, and the refreshing breeze of the Pacific. At VETS Adventures, we believe that the best professional growth happens when you’re relaxed, inspired, and—most importantly—assured that your time is being well-spent.
That is why we are thrilled to announce that the 41st Muller-Ihrke-Kwochka Veterinary Dermatology Seminar and the 26th Veterinary MEDicine Seminar have officially been approved by the American Association of Veterinary State Boards (AAVSB) for RACE credits.
What is RACE Approval, and Why Does It Matter?
RACE (Registry of Approved Continuing Education) is the gold standard for veterinary continuing education. It acts as a rigorous quality control system, ensuring that the CE you invest in is scientifically sound, ethically presented, and professionally relevant.
For a program to earn the RACE seal of approval, it must undergo a comprehensive review by the AAVSB. This means:
- Verified Experts: Every speaker is vetted for their specialized knowledge and teaching ability.
- High Educational Standards: The curriculum is reviewed to ensure it provides practical, “practice-ready” information that goes beyond basic general knowledge.
- Universal Acceptance: RACE-approved credits are recognized by the vast majority of state and provincial licensing boards across North America.
The Power of the “Joint Meeting”
By attending our sessions on Kauai, you aren’t just taking a vacation; you are fulfilling your professional obligations with the highest quality education available.
- The Dermatology Seminar: Earn 13.5 RACE-approved hours focused on the latest advancements in small animal dermatology.
- The MEDicine Seminar: Earn 13.5 RACE-approved hours covering critical updates in Endocrinology and Internal Medicine.
- The Joint Meeting: For those looking to maximize their time in paradise, attending both sessions allows you to earn a total of 27 RACE-approved CE units.
Peace of Mind for Your License
One of the biggest headaches for veterinarians is the “audit.” When you attend a RACE-approved program like ours, that stress disappears. We use the AAVSB RACEtrack system to help you easily track and report your hours, ensuring a streamlined license renewal process.
