Registration for US and European CLIIC courses is OPEN!!
by Jey Koehler Jan. 24, 2025

Jan. 24, 2025

Registration is OPEN for both the US (held at University of Tennessee in Knoxville June 2-6) and the UK/European (held at Cambridge University June 30-July 4) CLIIC courses! This is the first time this wonderful IN-PERSON ONLY course has been held in Europe, so if you are in Europe/UK and studying for the ACVP or ECVP exams, you don't want to miss it. Although the faculty will be more limited in number, the material will not. Registration deadlines are one week prior to the start of the course. Don't miss out by procrastinating! This course is a systems-based review of veterinary pathology including current literature (past 5 years), relevant textbooks, as well as thousands of gross and microscopic images (histopathology and cytology). Attendees will receive over 600 boards-style multiple-choice questions, both knowledge (literature and textbook based) and image based. Questions are embedded in the presentations via live polling, but attendees will also receive the questions with references in the course materials. This course replaces the previously offered Gross Course and differs from it by the addition microscopic images (histopathology and cytology) and current literature review, to better reflect the current ACVP exam format. No matter which certifying exam you are taking, or even if you are already a working pathologist, this course is an excellent review of the most current state of knowledge about a wide variety of diseases and species. IMPORTANT INFORMATION: We can only accept credit cards for registration payments; we cannot accept bank transfers or any other alternate forms of payment. It is the responsibility of attendees to arrange for credit card payment by their university or corporate business office.
