Foreign veterinary school graduates can be a valuable resource to veterinary practices while working to attain licensure in the United States. Identifying routes to employment, clarifying pathways to licensure, and exploring possibilities to streamline the process is the charge of the AAEP’s Foreign Veterinary Graduates Task Force established earlier this year.
Listen as foreign veterinary graduates share their diverse stories about the VISA process; the Educational Commission for Foreign Veterinary Graduates (ECFVG) and the Program for the Assessment of Veterinary Education Equivalence (PAVE) pathways to licensure eligibility in the U.S.; and the job process.
The international panel will be composed of Dr. Javier Pérez Quesada (Spain), Dr. Amanda Chitero Silva (Brazil), Dr. Santiago Rodriguez (Colombia), and Foreign Veterinary Graduates Task Force member Dr. Christopher Elliott (Australia).
