Join us in St. Kitts
Mark your calendar - this November, Ross University is once again hosting the West Indies Veterinary Conference on the island of St. Kitts.
This week-long program features 25 hours of continuing education covering a range of topics of interest to veterinarians of all specialties. Held at the beautiful St. Kitts Marriott Resort, it's a wonderful setting to take continuing education while enjoying a variety of networking and social events.
