Encouraging undergraduates to enter equine practice after graduation, Opportunities in Equine Practice Seminar (OEPS) will hold a two-day seminar starting Friday, Aug. 30 at the Griffin Gate Marriott in Lexington, Kentucky, the organization said in a Thursday release.

Reestablished in 2023 after a ten-year hiatus, the event hosts third-year veterinary students (Class of 2026) with practitioners from around the country to present their experiences in various disciplines. The estimated 325 attendees will be able to engage in interactive discussions with industry partners, tour equine hospitals, local horse farms and Keeneland.

Dr. Craig Lesser, the lead organizer of OEPS, said, “With dwindling numbers of students pursuing careers in equine practice, we aim to inspire and equip students with knowledge about the vast opportunities within equine practice that make our careers uniquely gratifying.”
