BizQuiz: Are you educating your veterinary team? (Answer 9B)

Taking the BizQuiz? This is the answer to question 9 of "Are you educating your veterinary team?"

9) B—Not enough

Your education allowance for technicians sits right in the sweet spot: In 2008, just 37 percent of Well-Managed Practices spent more than $500 per credentialed technician. But registered technicians are typically some of your most ambitious team members, and you and they can benefit from more.

You can find online and in-person resources for CE for technicians all over the place. Try CVC in Kansas City, San Diego, or Washington, D.C. And don't hesitate to turn your technicians onto free online learning and free and paid online CE.
