Becoming a member with AVA supplies you with the support of a wide community of anaesthetists around the world. It will also grant you invitations to our worldwide seminars, delivered by experts in our field.
AVA will also provide you with necessary funding to help you with your participation in these events, as well as the educational material that will help you continue and excel in your study of anaesthesia.

You will find information in the membership category section on the different types available. We offer memberships with reduced fees to residents/interns, nurses/technicians and affiliate members that are not veterinary surgeons, nurses or technicians, as well as for retired members. Honorary membership is awarded when a current member has supported the association over a number of years and contributed extensively to the veterinary anaesthesia and analgesia community.
