Join us in Fort Worth, September 22-25, for the first ever, SWVS Veterinary Technician Case Report Challenge. Candidates are required to be credentialed veterinary technicians, in good standing within their state, and have little to no previous, paid lecturing experience. We are looking for unique and interesting case management and nursing care scenarios. No limitation to species or case type. EVERYONE IS WELCOME! Submitted cases must be reviewed by a DVM or board- certified specialist to ensure quality and should be from one year prior to submission. A committee will review case outlines to determine who will be selected to present their case report at SWVS. Candidates will be evaluated on the unique qualities of their case, presentation quality, ability to present within the allotted time, and Q & A performance. A judging panel will select the winner of the challenge who will be awarded a special prize. Submission deadline is Thursday, June 30th, 2022, 11:59 PM CST. Submit outline and application to info@swvs.org READ FULL GUIDELINES: https://swvs.org/swvs-2022/events-page
