What CE options are guaranteed to fulfill any state board requirements?
Knowing what CE meets your state board's standards is fundamental. There are several options that meet some, many or all of your state board's requirements.
A widely accepted standard is the Registry of Approved Continuing Education (RACE) administered by the American Association of State Veterinary Boards. However, this is only one among several accepted means of CE accreditation.
Most state boards issue their own approvals of CE, or they accept CE that is approved by another state board or state Veterinary Medical Association (VMA). In addition, there are regional VMAs that cover groups of states.
Also accepted in many states are CE courses that are:
- delivered by accredited veterinary medical colleges,
- approved by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA),
- approved by AVMA recognized specialty or affiliated allied groups,
- federal, state or local government agencies
- and many more.
