About Us
The Australian Veterinary Practice Management Association is a special interest group of the Australian Veterinary Association. It is committed to the improvement of veterinary practice management through the promotion and development of it as a legitimate discipline and worthwhile veterinary activity.

The AVPMA has evolved from a group originally formed in response to the Veterinary Surgeons Award case. The association’s focus has expanded considerably since its inception and membership numbers continue to grow rapidly, with over 500 members. The association is focussed on delivering quality service to its members who come from rural, suburban and city locations and represent companion, mixed and large animal practices.

The AVPMA presented its first conference stream in Perth 2000, at the AVA National conference.
