American Association of Equine Practitioners
Objectives of Parent Organization
The AAEP's objectives are best derived from the mission statement:
"To improve the health and welfare of the horse, to further the
professional development of its members, and to provide resources and
leadership for the benefit of the equine industry." To this end, the
AAEP is constantly producing educational materials for horse owners and
those in the horse industry, providing continuing education for equine
practitioners, supporting equine research, and setting guidelines for
ethical practices in equine veterinary medicine.
Objectives of the Student Chapter
As a student organization, we follow the parent organization's
guidelines, providing opportunities for professional development and
networking. Our club acts to meet these goals by scheduling
opportunities for practical experience and extracurricular seminars.
