Continual Professional Development can take many forms, from attending clinical meetings, seminars, webinars, publishing articles, distance learning to name but a few.  Further details on CVE credit allocations can be found in downloads link or by clicking on FAQ. Rates for events will differ between IVNA members and non members, subscription numbers will be required when registering for an event to verify the correct registration and fee.
