Please join us for an informative continuing education presentation designed specifically to satisfy requirements for reciprocity licensure by endorsement, and for continuing education in the State of California. The topics and duration of the symposium is specified by the California Practice Act (please consult the draft agenda). California temporary licensees with RCP license type must attend the complete conference. Other veterinarians may attend sections of the symposium as needed for satisfaction of continuing education. Due to the dual purpose of the symposium (temporary licensure requirements and general continuing education), all attendees are required to sign-in and sign-out for each day. CE certificates will be individually created and specify the number of hours you attended. Because of the strict attendance policy local lodging is highly recommended. Late arrivals, early departures or absences during lectures time (regardless of the reason) may lead to less than the 26 hours of CE required for reciprocity (make-up time cannot be provided). If you would like handouts in paper form, there will be an additional fee of $15.00 (please indicate your preference when registering). You will need to present a government issued identification to pick-up your registration packet.
