Are you heading to the 2023 AVA Annual Conference?

With the theme of this conference being ‘Refresh, Renew, Refocus: Refresh your passion for the profession with outstanding CPD, Renew connections with colleagues and Refocus on developing your skills’, the VSBSA is excited to be involved with some of our directors presenting, some in attendance for professional development and the new Presiding Member Sonya Beyers and Registrar Rebecca Wilson wanting to meet as many of you as we can and learn all about the profession. VSBSA will also be part of the VSB Panel discussions on the Monday and Tuesday.

Board member Assoc. Prof Kiro Petrovski will be presenting on the Monday about ‘Nutrition requirements of sick cattle’ and the Tuesday, board member Dr Ale Arbe-Montoya with a panel on the ‘State of Human Resources’.

Please make sure to say hello and on Thursday 1 June, if you have free time, come by, and meet face to face with Sonya and Rebecca at lunchtime (between 12.30-2.00pm) at the entry foyer.

We look forward to seeing you there.

Can’t make it to the conference but want to chat with us? The VSBSA Board will be coming out to you soon with some communications on a profession question and answer and meet and greet webinar we plan to hold in the next couple of months.
