dvm360 Flex Forecast highlights OA, derm, marketing, and parvo CE

Flex Forecast: May and June 2026 spotlights four on-demand CE options from dvm360’s Flex platform, pairing clinical refreshers with a practice-growth session. The lineup includes an osteoarthritis prevention webinar from Janice Huntingford, DVM, focused on identifying at-risk dogs before degenerative joint disease is obvious; a feline dermatology session from Julia E. Miller, DVM, DACVD, on managing diet trials in selective cats; a marketing webinar from Kevin Brongers on local visibility and client trust; and a canine parvovirus program led by Tannetje Crocker, DVM, that reviews case management and newer monoclonal antibody-based treatment discussions. dvm360’s broader May 2026 conference calendar also shows a busy CE season ahead, with events including NAVC SkillShop, Fetch Nashville, AggieVet, ACVIM Forum, and PacVet.

Why it matters: For veterinary professionals, the mix is notable because it reflects where CE demand is landing right now: earlier intervention in osteoarthritis, more practical nutrition-linked dermatology decision-making in cats, renewed attention to parvo workflows and emerging therapeutics, and the reality that communication and discoverability now sit alongside medicine as practice essentials. The parvo session is especially timely because Elanco has been expanding access to its canine parvovirus monoclonal antibody, including USDA-approved prophylactic use for exposed puppies, while reference sources such as Merck Veterinary Manual and AAHA continue to emphasize both vaccination and evolving treatment protocols.

What to watch: Expect more CE programming this summer to keep blending core clinical updates with workflow, communication, and business content as practices balance patient care, team efficiency, and pet parent expectations. (dvm360.com)
