Why veterinary students should join VBMA...

 

• We have the opportunity to offer the Business Certificate Program and Capstone project through the WSU VBMA. That means that you will receive a Business Certificate on your transcript and you will walk with cords at your graduation ceremony.

 

• Membership to the VBMA introduces students to some of the important business issues in veterinary practice. It also introduces them to resources they can use to learn more business skills or solve business problems in the future.

 

• We provide our members with opportunities for networking, a business education, and help our members achieve their professional and educational goals.

 

• We cover a range of topics, including:

  • The importance of compliance

  • Conflict Resolution

  • Building trust through better communication

  • Electronic medical records

  • Business demographics

 

• We believe that being a great veterinarian is more than just knowing the medicine. We believe that practicing compassionate medicine also involves learning and applying business skills and effective communication.
