THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION PERTAINS TO THE 2020 VIRTUAL CONFERENCE. THIS INFORMATION WILL SOON BE REPLACED BY THE 2021 INFORMATION.
VCS Conference registration for members of other oncology associations
BEFORE YOU REGISTER: Attendees who are not a member of VCS but ARE a current member of ABROVET, ESVONC, JVCS, AMONCOVET and any other officially recognized oncology association in their home country/region are eligible for a $100 discount on their VCS conference registration.

Use the NON-MEMBER registration categories to register for the conference and place that code in the “promo code” area of the payment page to receive the discount.
Conference Registration Fees & Continuing Education
Your registration fee covers all presentations, both live online during the conference or on demand for one year afterwards.
Regarding continuing education:
- Those who attend the LIVE VIRTUAL CONFERENCE on October 15-17 are NOT required to take a test in order to earn CE for the sessions that they attend “live”. You will earn CE for the sessions that you log in to and attend. CE certificates will be emailed following the conference.
- Those who wish to watch presentations on demand at a later time can earn CE by visiting the Missouri Veterinary Medical Association (MVMA) website where presentations will be housed and available for a full year at no additional cost. You will be required to take and pass a short quiz following each presentation that you watch. This is included in your registration fee. These videos may not be available until November. An email will be sent to all registered attendees providing log in information for this specific site.
- All registrants will have access to all recorded presentations on the conference platform for one full year. If you do NOT need to earn CE, you may watch the presentations from our conference platform for a full year using the same login you were provided with after registration.
- All registrants will have access to a virtual proceedings and access will be given to you in early October.
PLEASE NOTE: The Veterinary Cancer Society Annual Conference runs in partnership with the Missouri Veterinary Medical Association (MVMA) and our conference has been approved for continuing education credits through MVMA. Participants should be aware that some boards have limitations on the number of hours accepted in certain categories and/or restrictions on certain methods of delivery. In some cases, your board may not approve of this CE. Please check with your state board before registering.
The first 400 US registered attendees (by October 1) will receive a pre-conference shipment from VCS that includes sponsor information and other goodies. Unfortunately, due to costly international shipping fees, we will be unable to ship this package to locations outside of the continental US. The conference proceedings will be electronic only this year and all attendees will get access to both a PDF version AND a searchable version through VIN.
