Organized by species, each Real Time Session will highlight the "Top 20" diseases and conditions
encountered by practitioners in the U.S. and Canada. All Real Time Sessions will include
multiple-choice questions similar to those that candidates will encounter on the NAVLE®.
The questions will lead to a brief discussion and summary of each condition in a distilled format.

** NOTE: The instructors provide a lot of excellent material and do their best to answer
participant questions in the time allotted. Sometimes a session can run overtime by
15 to 30 minutes because of the number of participant questions posted. Participants
are not required to stay late when the session runs overtime but it is in their best
interests to do so. A transcript of the Real Time Session, including any session overtime,
will be available in the course library the following day. Participants can use the transcript
to review any portion of the class that they may have missed.
Enrollment will be limited to 450 registrants. This class may fill quickly;
students and veterinarians interested in the structured active learning provided through
Real Time Sessions and message boards should register now to ensure a "seat" in class.
Please enroll only if planning to attend all Real Time Sessions and fully participate in the course.
