TRAINING EVALUATION
ALL RAVS volunteers are required to
submit a score of 80% or higher
on an online evaluation prior to attending any RAVS field
clinics.
The online training evaluation can be taken up to 2 months prior to your
scheduled trip, but no later than 30 days prior. Volunteers who have not
submitted a passing score 30 days before the trip will be permanently removed
from the trip roster.
We take this evaluation very seriously. You may only submit one test score.
A score of less than 80% will result in removal from all rosters for a period
of 3 months, at which time a new application may be submitted for any available
trips.
New exam scores must be submitted each calendar year as clinic protocols
continue to evolve and it is crucial that all volunteers be aware of current
protocols and curriculum.
Topics covered in the evaluations will be:
-- Veterinary students: All training materials
-- Veterinary technicians/assistants: All materials except
surgery sections
-- Veterinarians: Clinic protocols, medical records, assessment
protocols and RAVS / HSUS information.
-- Other volunteers: All materials except anesthesia and
surgery sections
Equine Training: Equine teams will be selected at the start
of each trip based on prior experience and a written test on RAVS equine
protocols. Volunteers not interested in participating in horse work will
not be responsible for the equine training materials, which are not included
in the general online training test.
Access to the training evaluation will be made available for each
group on a staggered schedule. Watch the News
& Updates page to find out when your group can access the evaluation..
