SUMMARY:61st Annual Veterinary Conference & Alumni Weekend
DESCRIPTION:**Registration closes February 23 @ 11:59 p.m.**\nThe 2025 Annual Conference has been set up a bit differently than previous years. Since veterinarians in Georgia only need 2 LEAP credits per renewal cycle\, and this is the first year in that two-year renewal calendar\, we are not offering any LEAP course credits this year. LEAP credits will be provided during the 2026 Annual Conference. \nThere are always requests for both large animal and small animal courses. However\, previous attendance for the split tracks has caused us to re-evaluate this offering. This year will offer combined lectures. \nScheduling multiple events within a two-day period does present challenges. Due to some of those scheduling challenges\, the total number of hours for this conference will only be 11.5 hours of CE credit. \nFinally\, based on feedback received throughout the year\, we are offering a lab component this year. There is a Clinical Skills Wet Lab registration option. The fee is $100 for the lab. There is a limit of 20 registrants per session\, with two sessions offered on Saturday morning. Both sessions will cover the same information. The topic is\, “Feed Me! Assisted Feeding in Critical Care Patients and Tube Feeding” for the Clinical Skills lecture segments on Friday afternoon. The wet lab on Saturday will focus on orogastric tube\, nasoesophaeal tube\, nasogastric tube\, esophagostomy tube; Why do we use each tube? Appropriate Positioning; Process for successful placement; Management\, care\, and use of the tube. \n\n\n\nInquiries: vetmedce@uga.edu\n\n\n\n2025 annual conference agenda.final \nFriday\, March 7th \n\nCVM Alumni Awards Luncheon\n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm | Cost:  $36 pp\nAlumni Happy Hour – 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm\n5:00 pm – 6:30 pm | Cost: Free (cash bar available)\nAlpha Psi and OTS Socials\nFriday evening\n\nSaturday\, March 8th \n\n50th Class Celebration Luncheon\n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm | Cost: $38 pp\nDVM Mom’s Luncheon\n12:00 pm – 1:30 pm | Cost: $32 pp\nUGA Veterinary Teaching Hospital Tours in celebration of the VTH’s 10-year anniversary\n2:00 pm – 4:00 pm | Cost: Free\nCVM Alumni Reception\n5:00 pm – 6:00 pm | Cost: $15 pp\n\nPlease see the options below for blocks that have been set aside for hotel reservations.
