AVMA Council on Education Seeks Site Visitors

July 30, 2014 — 

The Council on Education (COE) is now accepting applications for veterinarians interested in serving as Site Visitors. Applicants with a background in large animal medicine are encouraged to apply. Site Visitors will conduct veterinary school accreditation site visits on behalf of the COE. The Site Visitors will carefully review the Self-Study from the institution under review, verify the information during a comprehensive site visit of the institution, and submit a detailed report to the COE for its consideration. Site Visitors will make recommendations to the COE, but will not attend COE meetings, discuss findings, or otherwise participate in accreditation decisions.

All site visitors will receive training prior to participating in site visits. Training will be held at AVMA Headquarters in Schaumburg, Illinois on September 26-28, 2014.

The deadline for receipt of applications for Site Visitor candidates is August 1, 2014. The application form and a more detailed description of the responsibilities of Site Visitors and the application process are available here on the AVMA website.

Completed application packets should be emailed to OfficeEVP@avma.org, faxed to (847) 925-0944, or mailed to AVMA Office of the Executive Vice President, 1931 N. Meacham Rd, Suite 100, Schaumburg, IL, 60173.

Please feel free to contact OfficeEVP@avma.org with any questions. We look forward to receiving your applications!
