About the Center for Veterinary Postgraduate Education
The Center for Veterinary Postgraduate Education (CVPE) at the UC Davis Weill School of Veterinary Medicine is committed to “lifelong learning” programs. We are committed to making sure you have a seamless continuing education experience.
Our programs provide the most current information on recent developments in veterinary medicine and improve the quality of life for our veterinary patients. Programs are available to veterinary professionals who are seeking new opportunities for advancing veterinary care, professional development and fulfilling their continuing education (CE) requirements. Select events are also provided that are appropriate for the general public to learn more about animal welfare, disease prevention, and one health issues.
The CVPE is committed to the UC Davis Principles of Community and working toward a more just, equitable and inclusive society. Education plays a critical role in fighting systemic racism and addressing the adversities that disproportionately harm BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) communities around the world. As continuing education providers, we recognize our fundamental responsibility to ensure that the CVPE instruction, curriculum, and events — virtual or in person — support diverse perspectives and foster an inclusive environment for all.
If you need help, please email our support team at [email protected] and we will get back to you within 1-2 business days. Please be as specific as possible so that we can quickly help you. If you would like to be contacted by phone, then please leave your phone number in your email.
