Networking, learning, applicability: what can you expect at an animal health conference?

Have you been looking for ways to boost your understanding of the animal health industry and become more valuable to your organization? 

It’s time to register for a conference. 

Attending a conference can do many things for your professional development this year, including giving you an opportunity to network, learn and develop applicable skills that will make you more effective and in demand. 

Here’s what you need to know. 

Networking 

At this fall’s conference, Animal Health Regulatory Affairs: Working Successfully with USDA and FDA, you’ll have multiple opportunities to network with industry professionals and experts from USDA and FDA. 

Networking provides you with the opportunity to:

• Meet other professionals and experts in your industry
• Connect with potential employers or employees
• Discover new industry trends, problems and solutions
• Develop a deeper understanding of your industry 

According to Harvard Business Review, networking is a necessity for any professional. When you participate in this year’s conference, you’ll have a unique opportunity to speak directly with experts you may otherwise find challenging to connect with. 

In fact, the conference enables you to attend dinner with the subject matter expert (SME) of your choice, so whether you have specific questions you need help with or you just want the chance to learn more about the regulatory affairs side of your industry, having dinner with an SME provides you with the personalized opportunity to deepen your connections. 

Learning 

Of course, attending a professional conference also provides you with an incredible opportunity to learn on a deeper level. Whether you’ve been wanting to learn about bioequivalence, biowaivers, submissions to CVB or CRO selection and compliance, a conference means you’ll be able to spend time diving deep into these subjects without distractions or external responsibilities that require your attention. 

At this year’s conference, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about a variety of topics, including: 

• USDA and FDA FOIA discussion and differences
• FDA inspections
• Pharmacovigilance
• International regulations

Additionally, you’ll have the opportunity to share dinner with a subject matter expert of your choice. This will provide you with unbeatable information since you’ll have an opportunity to ask questions and receive personalized information that can help you develop your skills as you move forward in your career field. 

Applicability 

One of the most important aspects of attending a conference is finding the opportunity to apply what you’ve learned. Our conference was carefully designed by industry professionals who understand exactly what you need to know to be successful in regulatory affairs related to products for animals. 

In addition to panels, you’ll participate in hands-on workshops that will provide you with the information, knowledge and skills needed to bring your learning back to your place of work so you can be a stronger, more well-rounded team member. 

Ready to build your skills, your network and your value? We’d love to see you at this year’s animal health conference at K-State Olathe.
