Laura C. Barnes, LVT, CVT

No pictures this post, but I wanted to let everyone know I FINALLY heard from the Idaho Board of Veterinary Medicine that I have received my certification out here. In NY I was a licensed veterinary technician (LVT), out here I am a certified veterinary technician (CVT). There isn't a difference other than the name. So I guess now, I start looking for a job! :) The one thing that I am REALLY not looking forward to is getting my continuing education credits. Out in Idaho they require a certain amount of continuing ed. (CE) credits every 2 years to keep your Vet Tech license. They didn't require them in NY. They usually offer some online courses and such, but you can only do a certain percentage online. Ugh! I don't want to learn anymore!!! :) (Just kidding!)
