In favor of increasing CE hours from 6 to 8
 

LVTs have elected to pursue a career in a profession where information is continually changing and being added.  In order to stay current in their field, continuing education is crucial.  The added hours spent updating LVT's knowledge base and skills will benefit all levels of the veterinary profession, from maintaining patient care at a higher level to keeping technicians excited about their profession.  I support the requirement to increase the CE hours.
