Quality Continuing Education
The Ohio Dairy Veterinarians host an annual meeting each year in the first week of January. We aim to provide our members with poignant, thought-provoking, and new information to benefit our members and their clientele.​
We have been able to provide top-quality continuing education due to generous corporate support. If you have been a sponsor of our meeting in the past, we want to thank you again. If you have not, we look forward to a potential future relationship.​
Our organization has three goals:
1. To provide the best possible continuing education for our membership.​
2. Support and develop relationships and learning opportunities for veterinary students​
3. Support of the dairy industry in the state of Ohio.​
