The Veterinary Receptionist Congress offers a unique opportunity for these dedicated professionals to refine their skills and stay up-to-date with the latest trends and best practices in the industry.

- Communication Skills: Master the art of communication to effectively convey important information to clients, colleagues, and pet owners, fostering trust and maintaining clear lines of communication.
- Talking to Clients about Money: Gain valuable insights on navigating financial conversations with clients, ensuring transparency and understanding when discussing treatment costs and payment options.

Claire Gregory, Events Manager at CAW said, “This virtual event aims to deliver valuable insights and practical skills that will empower receptionists to provide exceptional service and strengthen the relationship with clients and their beloved companions."
The Veterinary Receptionist Congress will take place entirely online using zoom, enabling participants to join from the comfort of their homes or workplaces.
