What if I register for a webinar but can't make it to the live session? 

No worries! All of our presentations are recorded, archived and made available for on demand viewing.


If you register for a webinar and miss the live presentation, you can view the recording on demand after the live air date.



If I view a presentation from the archives (on demand) can I still earn CE credit?

Yes - You must view the presentation in its entirety and complete a post-event evaluation.

VetVine® Members* are eligible to earn a CE certificate for their participation in webinars or viewing videos On Demand.

*Veterinary Students (veterinary medicine or veterinary technology), Pet Owners, and individuals who do not have a login account will not be issued a CE certificate for their participation.


Where can I find out whether a presentation or video is eligible for CE credit and the category?

  • To determine if a presentation or video is eligible for CE credit and to determine the number of credits you can earn, click on the OVERVIEW tab on the presentation landing page. You will see whether it’s approved for CE credit and how many credits you can earn.

  • If you login and participate in a live webinar (which we typically host on a Tuesday or Weds evening at 8p or 9p ET) you are eligible to earn CE credit classified as “Online and Interactive.” If miss the live webinar and view the recording on demand, you are eligible to earn CE credit classified as "Online and Non-interactive."

  • Weekly hot topic / Specialty Update videos are only available for viewing On Demand. Anything you view On Demand classifies as “Online and Non-interactive.”


What else can you tell me?
