CE Info
What types of CE are available?
The 2024 ACVIM Forum offers a combination of in person, live virtual sessions and asynchronous, on-demand recordings. Registered attendees will be eligible for two types of RACE CE credit in jurisdictions which recognize AAVSB RACE approval: 1) Live, Interactive and 2) Anytime, Non-Interactive distance continuing education credits.
How do I earn and track live, interactive distance CE?
(Livestream Sessions and Live Virtual Day)
Accessing a live, virtual session will serve as your check-in in the system. As with an in-person conference, you will be required to keep your own record of sessions attended and CE credits earned. You will be provided with a blank CE certificate via email for livestream sessions within one week of the live event, and a CE certificate for the Live Virtual Day within one week of the Live Virtual Day conclusion.
How do I earn and track on-demand CE?
To earn CE credit for on-demand sessions, attendees must pass a CE quiz with a score of 70% or higher, within 3 attempts. Upon successful completion of the quiz after each session, your CE credit will be added to a transcript that will be used to generate a virtual CE certificate that you can download at any time within the virtual access window or by the virtual access deadline.
How do I earn and track live, in-person CE?
In-person attendees received an email containing a blank digital CE certificate at the beginning of the in-person conference after check-in. Attendees will be responsible for logging the in-person sessions they attended for verification purposes and can do so however they choose. There is a how-to video at the bottom of this page that shows how to create a record using the digital agenda.
Please note: Claiming session CE credits is or are in accordance with AAVSB RACE-approval standards, however participants should be aware that some state boards have limitations on the number of hours accepted in certain categories and/or restrictions on certain methods of delivery of continuing education. Please contact your state board directly with any questions.
