What Continuing Education (CE) Events Does MVMA Offer?

Updated

The Massachusetts Veterinary Medical Association (MVMA) offers continuing education through two main formats: in-person CE events and virtual CE events, plus a webinar series. Its event listings show a mix of multi-day conferences and single-topic sessions, including a Fall CE Conference, a telehealth webinar series, and focused sessions on species-specific or specialty medicine. If you want the current schedule, dates, and registration details, the MVMA Event Calendar and its CE pages are the places to check.

Types of CE events MVMA lists

MVMA separates its continuing education offerings into distinct categories on its site:

  • MVMA In-Person CE Events — conferences and sessions held at a physical location.
  • MVMA Virtual CE Events — online CE programming.
  • MVMA Continuing Education — the broader section that organizes CE activity.
  • Event Calendar — a consolidated calendar of upcoming events.

It also lists Event Sponsorship, Exhibitor Opportunities, and Virtual MVMA Conference Sponsorship Opportunities, which are aimed at organizations rather than attendees.

Examples of CE events shown on the site

The upcoming events section lists these examples:

Event Dates shown
2026 MVMA Fall CE Conference (In-Person) October 3 – October 4, 2026
MVMA – Telehealth in Veterinary Medicine Webinar Series September 30 – November 18, 2026
MVMA Fall CE – Small Ruminant, Camelid, and Swine Medicine Sunday, December 6, 2026
MVMA Fall CE – Small Animal Ophthalmology Sunday, December 13, 2026

These illustrate the range: a multi-day in-person conference, a multi-week webinar series, and single-day specialty sessions. Each listing has a "View Event" link leading to more detail.

What "CE Accreditation through MVMA" means

The site includes a page titled CE Accreditation through MVMA under its News/Events section. This indicates MVMA is involved in accrediting continuing education, not only hosting events. If you are organizing CE and want it recognized, that page is the relevant entry point; if you are attending, it signals that MVMA-tracked CE connects to its accreditation function.

How to find events and register

  1. Go to the News/Events area of massvet.org.
  2. Open the Event Calendar to see all upcoming events in one view, or go directly to MVMA Continuing Education and choose MVMA In-Person CE Events or MVMA Virtual CE Events.
  3. Select an event and use its View Event link for full details.
  4. For registration and account access, note that the site has Join and Login options, and a cart ("View Cart") — so some actions, such as registering or purchasing, may require an account. The site does not state that events are free, so confirm cost and access on each event page.

Practical notes

  • Some content is members-only: the site labels MassVet News (Members Only) and a Members Only section, so certain materials beyond event listings may require membership.
  • If you have trouble signing in, the site provides a "Need help logging in?" instructions link.
  • Dates shown are for 2026 events; always verify against the live Event Calendar, since schedules can change.

For the definitive, current list of CE offerings, dates, and registration requirements, use the MVMA Event Calendar and the In-Person and Virtual CE event pages on massvet.org.
