AABP Executive Director Dr. Fred Gingrich is joined by the program committee for the 6th AABP Recent Graduate Conference. The program committee members are Dr. Tommy Ware (AABP Emerging Leader and chair), Dr. Alex Pop (beef and practice management sessions), Dr. Michael Rohde (beef sessions) and Dr. Kendra Wells (dairy sessions). The conference offers a unique CE opportunity for AABP members who graduated from 2015-2022. The theme of the conference is “Competence to Confidence” and offers CE sessions on practice management, small ruminants, clinical skills, beef and dairy. The keynote address will be delivered by AABP member Dr. Eric Rooker who will discuss “rituals of strength” to provide meaningful skills for recent graduates to develop confidence in their competence! Our guests discuss how they have enjoyed attending this conference for not only the continuing education that is developed with the recent graduate in mind, but also the networking with colleagues who are at the same stage of their career. AABP offers this conference to support our recent graduate members and demonstrate the organization’s commitment to retaining them in bovine practice. The conference offers networking, social events and a trade show. On Thursday, February 9, four preconference seminars are offered that will provide small group settings to learn skills on becoming an owner, reproductive ultrasound, thoracic ultrasound and lameness. Find more information about the seminars at this link. Each preconference seminar is approved for 8 hours of CE in jurisdictions that recognize RACE approval. The conference is RACE-approved for 15.5 hours of CE.
