In support of business management CE
 

I am writing in support for the non-clinical CE requirements amendment.  Business management is an integral part of the animal care industry, which is as inclusive of client education/communications as it is the actual care of our furred/feathered/scaled and shelled friends (hope that covers them all).  I can appreciate the concern for non-clinical CE consuming credits from the 15 required-I am a super proponent for wet labs/surgical/anesthetic protocol CE seminars wherever and whenever possible since that is the reason most of us have entered into this field.  With so many free CE webinars available to us now, however, I wonder if it’s not possible, down the road, to slightly increase the requirements allowing for more diversity (as I put my protective shield up).
