  • Title: Business education in veterinary schools: the potential role of the Veterinary Business Management Association.
    Author: Kieves NR, Roark AW, Sparks TK.
    Journal: J Vet Med Educ; 2007; 34(5):678-82. PubMed ID: 18326781.
    Abstract:
    Studies have indicated the importance of business education in improving the income level attained by veterinarians and the quality of service they provide. The Veterinary Business Management Association (VBMA), a national organization of veterinary students, has the potential to augment veterinary curricula by providing additional education to help ensure professional success. Local chapters at 27 of the 28 veterinary colleges in the United States (as of 2007) supplement the curriculum by focusing on business topics. A national governing board oversees the chapters, helping to ensure that high-quality educational programs are conducted and providing a conduit for communication.
