Dear Members,
You should have received a letter from the Veterinary Surgeons Board regarding the upcoming mandatory continuing professional development scheme starting October this year.
The HKVA regularly organises continuing education events. They usually include a buffet dinner or refreshments depending on the location, followed by a talk given by veterinary specialists or highly-trained veterinarians, on weekday evenings. We also arrange full-day practical workshops from time to time. Details can be found on our CPD calendar at https://www.hkva.org/localce.asp. Early registration is recommended as some of these events may have seat limits. If there are areas or topics you and your colleagues are interested in, please email us at secretariat@medcom.com.hk.
I would also like to take this opportunity to let you know that the HKVA will be offering free membership for the year 2024 to all registered veterinarians in Hong Kong. Some of the benefits include discounted CPD registration fees and regular update of new CPD events. We will send you another update later this year to explain further. Please feel free to share this information with your colleagues.
If you have any questions regarding our CPD events, please feel free to contact us using the above email address. We appreciate your support as always!
Regards,
Howie Wong
