This initiative was created to provide funds for RVTs who may want to expand their professional knowledge or skills as an RVT and require additional financial support to attend a conference or continuing education activity. A maximum of $1000.00 is available per bursary. Applications will need to show how the funds will enhance their skills, goals or career development, while providing a contribution to the veterinary community.
This program is a RVTTC member benefit and open to all RVT members of RVTTC (BCVTA, ABVTA, SAVT, MVTA, OAVT, and EVTA) to support their continued professional growth as RVTs.
