CE Tracking Through the AAVSB RACE
As of January 2021, RACE Providers like IntroVet™ are required to keep a record of each attendee’s license number and state. The AAVSB RACE requires that these records be maintained using a centralized database, known as RACEtrack®. Only license numbers and states of licensure are provided to the AAVSB through RACEtrack. No other personal data is shared.
Create your own RACEtrack account! RACEtrack® is a free service that allows veterinary professionals the chance to keep a record of all continuing education (CE) coursework. This system also easily communicates your CE hours earned to credentialing agencies (state veterinary boards) that may request records from you. VIEW WEBSITE
Currently, RACEtrack records are only required for veterinarians and technicians who are licensed to practice in the USA.
