CEO’S REPORT

CEO REPORT

Stephen Alderman, CEO

Our College community has been extremely busy over the last few months with the delivery of examinations and the return of in-person Science Week. Member volunteering and expert contributions were vital to both, and it is such a reward to see these endeavours evolve each year. Thank you to all involved in these significant undertakings each year. As we look toward the future of examinations, the College has established a project team that will focus on the evolution and support needed to continue to provide sustainable and quality examinations. You will find details of this activity in Rachel Tan’s Project Officer update in this edition of the Courier.

We continue to see a large number of veterinarians committed to study and advanced certifications, with the 2023 intake recently opening with a flurry of applications. Are you a member who would like to contribute to examinations? The Board of Examiners will run an online workshop in November, where you can find out what roles may interest you either now or in the future. The November workshops are a great learning opportunity to discover, update or refine examining skills that are often readily applicable to other aspects of your career. You can register your interest by emailing examinations@anzcvs.org.au, and we will include you in workshop updates and invites.

Our team in the office is always happy to assist with your enquiries, and I encourage members to take the opportunity to involve our team in any initiatives you are considering. We can often provide additional support and options for your Chapter to consider.
