National
Veterinary Technician Week - October 12-18, 2008
History/Purpose
In June 1993, the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America' s Executive Board passed a resolution declaring the third week in October as National Veterinary Technician Week (NVTW).
During this special week, veterinary technicians can focus favorable attention on their profession through a variety of activities. These activities serve to:
- Educate the public about this vital member of the veterinary
medical team.
- Reinforce the value and professionalism of veterinary
technicians to veterinarians and the public.
- Provide an opportunity for veterinary technicians to salute
one another for excellent performance in their work.
- Acknowledge veterinarians for hiring veterinary technicians.
