The primary goal of global veterinary standards is to create uniformity in veterinary practices across different countries, ensuring that all veterinarians meet high-quality care standards regardless of their location.
By establishing global standards, the ICVA ensures that veterinarians across the world provide high-quality care, which directly contributes to the welfare of animals and public health.
Setting international standards ensures that veterinarians who meet the requirements can work across borders, promoting mobility and uniformity in veterinary practice while maintaining high standards of animal care globally.
Global veterinary standards typically involve standardized examinations that all professionals must pass, ensuring that they possess the necessary knowledge and skills to meet international expectations, regardless of where they were trained.
The ICVA supports global standards by creating comprehensive guidelines and administering certification exams that assess veterinary professionals based on internationally recognized criteria, ensuring consistency across countries.
