If you are interested in becoming a member of the Board and you are an AVA member you will receive an email from the AVA looking for nominations early in 2018.

To register your interest in being one of the veterinarians selected by the Minister and not necessarily a member of the AVA you should join the NSW Boards and Committees Register.

Please contact the Board’s office if you would like to learn more about the role of Board members including expectations and remuneration.  We are also able to put you in touch with a current or previous Board member.
