Minnesota Opportunities for Veterinary EngagementMOVE is an initiative by the Minnesota Veterinary Medical Association to support the professional success and development of veterinary professionals through social and educational networking opportunities. Engage with peers and meet experienced individuals in the veterinary profession. Network in a fun, relaxed setting while enjoying the company of colleagues. Connect to those going through similar professional experiences. Share and receive advice on relevant topics to you and your career. Success happens when you are able to engage, connect and learn from others. We want you to move through your veterinary career with ease and the tools necessary to be successful.
