Please familiarize yourself with the MVC's terms and conditions of participation. By registering for the MVC, you acknowledge and accept these terms.

- Canceling In-Person Only or Hybrid registrations: Feb. 19, 2025.

- Canceling Workshops, Labs, & Special Events registrations: Feb. 19, 2025.
- Canceling Virtual Only registrations: March 3, 2025.
Continuing Education. Each registrant is responsible for checking with their licensing board/certification body to determine if the MVC/Virtual MVC is approved for CE credit, how much can be used for license/registration, and when such license/registration is due.
Public Health Emergencies. In the event state or local health orders prevent the live MVC from occurring, pre-registered attendees will receive a full refund.
Consent to be Photographed. Registration for the Midwest Veterinary Conference and attendance at any events, educational sessions and/or wet labs held in conjunction with the MVC constitutes an agreement by the registrant to OVMA’s use and distribution of his/her image or voice in photographs, videotapes, electronic reproductions and audiotapes of such events and activities.
Shared Content. The OVMA may use content you share in relation to the MVC in future promotional materials, including but not limited to social media posts, photos, and comments.
Privacy Disclosure. The OVMA will not release your contact information to non-exhibiting companies. Please be aware that the contact information you provide will be encoded into your attendee badge and/or virtual attendee profile and may be obtained by Exhibitors.
Hands-On Labs Policy. By registering for a Hands-On Lab, Registrant acknowledges and agrees that some labs involve working with live animals, cadavers, specimens, equipment and other unique learning materials which may expose the registrant to a risk of injury or disease in the same manner as a veterinary professional would be exposed to these risks in carrying out the same or similar procedures in a clinical setting. The registrant, by registering for these Hands-On Labs and completing this registration form, agrees to assume this risk and hereby waives and releases the OVMA, any faculty, and other participants from any and all damage or injury arising out of or related to registrant’s participation in the Hands-On Lab.
Virtual MVC Access. Only registered attendees are permitted to access the MVC Virtual Platform and claim/be verified for CE credit. Each registration is limited to one simultaneous device sign-in. Registrants agree they will not share, distribute, record, or sell their individual access code, speaker videos, and/or conference proceedings to unregistered individuals or companies. OVMA is not responsible for attendee technology and/or equipment failures that prevent access to the Virtual Platform.
