Bursting at the seams, but not sure you can afford to build? It might not cost as much as you think. If you’re ready to make a change to your facility, your first step is simple: Attend the most trusted and complete course on hospital design.

The three-day Veterinary Economics Hospital Design Conference delivers essential information about every stage of building or remodeling a practice, even in today’s economy. The industry’s most knowledgeable architects and financial management experts provide strategies that will save you headaches — and money. You’ll take home all the knowledge you need to start creating your dream facility, no matter the scope.

"This conference delivered above and beyond expectations!" said one typical attendee at the end of last year's sessions. "All the presentations were very helpful and the speakers were great," agreed another. Overall, the veterinarians attending identified the discussions about financing, the one-on-one time for a consultation, the panel about materials, and the broad knowledgebase and expertise of the presenters as some of the most valuable elements of the program.

Your registration includes:

• One 30-minute consultation per practice with an architect or architectural engineer* — a $250 value. Bring your ideas and plans to your consultation. If you pre-register, you’ll receive a hospital design questionnaire in late July to fill out and return before the conference.
• A Hospital Design Conference Proceedings book that includes design articles and resource lists — a $45 value
• A copy of the Veterinary Economics Portfolio of Award-Winning Floor Plans — a $75 reference book
• Detailed discussion of your financial options
• Need-to-know information about regulatory issues
• Critical advice on veterinary design trends and materials selection
• Free breakfast, lunch, and refreshments
• Access to the CVC in Kansas City Exhibit Hall on Saturday
• 22.5 hours of CE credit

Cost: $960
