Nomination period for RCVS and VN Council elections 2017 now open

The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) is now accepting nominations from veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses who would like to stand as candidates in the RCVS Council and Veterinary Nurses Council elections next year.

In order to stand, candidates for either council will need to submit a nomination form, short biography, personal statement, and high resolution digital photo by Tuesday 31 January 2017. Each candidate will also require two nominations; these should be veterinary surgeons who are on the College’s register but or not current RCVS council members for RCVS Council Candidates, and registered veterinary nurses who are not currently on the VN council for VN council Candidates.

Further information and guidance for prospective candidates for either councils can be found on the RCVS website.
