A bold new approach to our plenary sessions. 
In 2024, we started to reimagine how keynotes are done, inviting thought leaders to reimagine and re-invent the experience with an eye towards community, knowledge sharing, and energy. What will 2025 bring? 

Last Session Club Speakers Series
In 2023, we launched the "Last Session Club." Those who were there know what we’re talking about; you have to join us in 2025 to learn more and to be a part :->

Morning Yoga

Yoga was a popular start to the day in Palm Springs (2023) and again this year in Houston. AVTE is committed to continuing to offer wellness programming during the conference and is actively looking at opportunities to build on the last two years when we are together in Louisville.

 

About the AVTE Conference

The AVTE Annual Conference brings together internationally known thought leaders and front-line innovators to educate the next generation of Veterinary Technician Leaders. Each year, the AVTE Conference Committee will accept proposals for sessions that:

  • Support the association’s mission of promoting quality education in veterinary technology;
  • Introduce new, unique, and successful methods of teaching today’s college students;
  • Incorporate interactive learning methods (not completely lecture-based); and
  • Would be taught by professionals known for their exceptional teaching styles

AVTE Sponsors and Exhibitors

The AVTE Annual Conference brings together educators from across the US and Canada, and we couldn't have this event without our generous sponsors. At an AVTE conference, attendees have time to form true partnerships to provide solutions today and influence the next generation of veterinary professionals. Don't miss your opportunity to join these leaders in our field. Customized sponsorship packages are always available. For more information, please contact Todd Von Deak at 888-859-8832 or [email protected].

Exhibitors know the AVTE Annual Conference is one not to miss. Not only is it a chance for hands-on demos and real conversations about solutions, AVTE educators bring their own insights on what the future of veterinary medicine needs.
