Becoming a CVMA Member
Dear Colleague:
In these challenging economic times, we understand that you consider each expense carefully, weighing cost against benefit, to decide how to best spend your professional dues dollars. Now that it’s time to consider joining CVMA, we’d like to remind you how the cost of membership provides you with invaluable benefits that you can’t find anywhere else.
Education. CVMA offers you the education you need, when you need it, without the hassle and expense of out-of-state travel.
- CVMA Convention – Members receive considerable discounts on convention registration (even more important in 2010, a licensing renewal year!).
- Webinars – CVMA offers free webinars to fit your busy schedule, on urgent topics you need to understand (such as Canine Hyperadrenocorticism and Canine Influenza Virus)
Advocacy. CVMA tackles the tough legislative issues so you don’t have to – protecting you, the profession, and our collective interests in animal health and welfare.
- Animal Chiropractic – Because of CVMA’s involvement in this critical legislation, animal chiropractic may be provided only if a Colorado licensed veterinarian has examined the animal patient and determined to provide (or not) a written veterinary medical clearance.
- Economic Damages – CVMA helped drastically change House Bill 08-1308—that would have permitted Colorado veterinarians to be sued for emotional pain and suffering on the loss of a pet—to address only how a rabies exemption may be legally provided by a licensed veterinarian.
Information. CVMA brings you a wealth of information, in all the ways you need it.
- eNews Digest – The latest news and information, delivered via e-mail, to keep you current and alert you to urgent animal health updates and breaking news.
- CVMA Voice – The quarterly newsletter of your association keeps you updated, informed, and engaged with the veterinary profession in Colorado. From science updates to best practices to member news, the Voice is your print source for all things CVMA.
The bottom line? CVMA works hard doing things none of us could do alone. We save you time and we save you money. And we stand behind you, offering the collective strength of your colleagues and your association, as you continue to navigate these challenging times.
Don’t miss out on all that CVMA membership has to offer. Join CVMA today!
Sincerely,
William Fredregill, DVM
President
