Gingrich discusses the many CE opportunities for AABP members. The board has authorized funding many more CE opportunities for members. Historically, AABP has conducted an annual conference as its main CE event. AABP now offers the annual conference, recent graduate conference, practice management workshops, online CE of all webinars and conferences, and RACE approval for all CE, webinars and seminars outside of conferences. If you are not an AABP member, we encourage you to join us so that you can take advantage of the CE opportunities this organization has to offer.
Gingrich closes by addressing some of the advocacy work from 2023, including xylazine legislation and protecting the VCPR from changes that may negatively impact cattle veterinarians. He encourages veterinarians who are AABP members to donate to the AVMA PAC to support this work.
