Have something to share with Ontario RVTs?

The RVT Journal (formerly TECHNEWS) provides the single best direct route to more than 3,700 Registered Veterinary Technicians (RVTs), as well as hospital auxiliaries, affiliated industry partners and educational institutions in Canada. As the voice of Canadian RVTs, we welcome the opportunity to provide our audience with the latest news in best practices and industry innovations. With each issue of The RVT Journal we aim to:

  • Continue to provide four continuing education (CE) opportunities per issue
  • Feature RVTs more prominently in our pages
  • Build confidence and esteem in the RVT profession
  • Include quality Canadian content that is representative of various sectors and demographics
  • Demonstrate thought leadership on animal health issues
  • More closely align with industry partners

We invite RVTs and other members of the veterinary medical community to contribute content to The RVT Journal. RVTs also earn CE credits for their contributions.

Submit a Continuing Education (CE) article.

In every issue of The RVT Journal, we include at least four CE articles with corresponding quizzes. RVTs who read our journal can earn one CE credit for each quiz they complete correctly.
