Offering Programs to Meet Every Level of Technical Expertise

Based on a three-year plan developed by the ASEV Board of Directors, significant enhancements to the 2006-2008 Annual Meetings are being planned to better serve the professional needs of our diverse membership. This strategy will result in an increasingly changed program matrix for future ASEV annual meetings with varied technical levels from scientific research to fundamental practice.
