NBVME Practice Analysis Survey Launch

The Collaboration for Veterinary Assessments, consisting of the National Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners (NBVME) and National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME), will launch the initial wave of the practice analysis survey in the US on April 18, 2016. It will be launched to veterinarians in several waves in the weeks following the initial launch. The survey has been administered to veterinarians in Canada and an excellent response was received.

The purpose of the survey is to ensure that the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination (NAVLE®) reflects the knowledge, skills, and competencies needed by entry-level veterinarians because it is a key requirement for licensure in the US and Canada. The NBVME is working closely with both the American and Canadian Veterinary Medical Associations on the survey’s administration.

The survey will be sent to a carefully selected sample of veterinarians and it is crucial that everyone included in this sample respond. This survey provides veterinarians in practice with the opportunity to help build the foundation for the NAVLE® to ensure that it accurately assesses entry-level competencies. The NBVME needs your help as this is a critical juncture for veterinary assessments. We greatly appreciate the time, effort, and expertise of everyone in the select group of veterinarians who receive and complete the survey. The survey will ask veterinarians about their specific area of expertise and will take approximately 20 minutes to complete depending on the practice areas selected by the survey participant.
