Support non-clinical CE
 

As an LVT, I do find myself in a position from time to time needing to be more familiar with management and inventory.  I do feel that allowing a portion of CE for both LVTs and DVMs to be non-clinical is important because these are subjects that are not touched on very much during school and many of "us" come into the real world knowing the medical aspects, but failing in business aspects of veterinary medicine.  I feel that it would be beneficial to our patients, our clients, our businesses and ourselves if we were able to take a few sessions out of our  conferences, on line sessions and monthly group meetings to focus on these subjects!
