"Enhancing Communication in Veterinary Medicine:
Raising our Standard of Care" 

We are pleased to announce the 6th International Conference on Communications in Veterinary Medicine will be held Sunday October 31 – Tuesday November 2, 2010 at Napa Valley’s premiere resort Solage Calistoga.

The program is designed for academics, researchers, practitioners, front line staff and practice teams, with a focus on sharing best practices, ideas and innovation, building community and promoting dialogue on important communication issues.

For practice teams, ICCVM provides a high energy boot camp on communications, delving into the issues that deeply impact the bottom line and providing ideas to discuss and solutions that can be applied immediately.

Researchers and academics from around the world use ICCVM to bring forth new research and innovative teaching methods.

The program includes keynotes from industry leaders, small interactive workshops, role playing, small discussion groups plus invigorating networking and team building activities. The Solage meeting rooms are a seamless blend of indoors/outdoors with giant sliding doors and we will utilize the elements at all possible times.

Solage Calistoga is nothing short of magic and the ideal location for ICCVM. Tucked into the hills at the north end of Napa Valley, it is an interesting mixture of laid back luxury with a focus on healthy, thoughtful balance. ICCVM has met in some fascinating venues in North America and we have never been more excited!

The program will include an evening at a private winery and delegates will want to experience Solage’s top rated spa and restaurant. Delegates can arrive Saturday evening or early Sunday and the program will go from Sunday 10am to Tuesday 4pm. For the busy team, a two day Sunday-Monday option is also available.

Napa Valley is amazing and Solage Calistoga is the true California experience. Make plans now to attend ICCVM 2010!
