The Michigan Veterinary Medical Association (MVMA) is a not-for-profit association representing more than 2100 Michigan veterinarians working in private and corporate practice, government, industry, educational institutions, and uniformed services. Considered the primary source of continuing education for veterinarians located in the State of Michigan, the MVMA develops and maintains educational programming for DVMs. As Michigan is one of the few remaining states without mandatory continuing education, the MVMA continues to work with the (Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine ) to develop program guidelines and standards. In addition to providing information resources and discounts on personal and professional services, they advocate for veterinary and animal welfare legislation. The MVMA publishes ''The Michigan Veterinarian'' and distributes a monthly educational enewsletter. (Official Website ) == History == Founded in 1883, the association, through a variety of educational, outreach and advocacy activities, works to advance member development; promote the professional and scientific standards or veterinary medicine; improve the business and work environment for veterinarians; and to serve as the public voice for veterinary medicine in Michigan. MVMA is at the forefront of the effort to educate veterinarians to serve as front-line defenders of the public against zoonotic diseases, which can be transmitted from animals to humans, in order to play a role in maintaining public health and safety. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Michigan Veterinary Medical Association」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
