Registration or re-registration after a period of three years lapsed

If you have been removed from the SAVC register for more than three years and/or failed to register after three years lapsed since you received your degree, diploma or certificate, the SAVC will evaluate your application to determine if a re-registration can take place.

Registration after a period of three years lapsed since obtaining the prescribed qualification

If you have a prescribed veterinary technologist qualification, but failed to register within a three-year period of qualifying, you are obliged to sit, and pass, the SAVC registration examination.

You will also need to submit activities completed as part of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) during the period that you were not registered with Council. The approval for registration and/or re-registration with Council will be assessed on an individual basis and merit. If recommended for the examination, the format of the examination will be assessed on individual merit, which could be theoretical, practical or a combination of both. Part of the consideration would include the frequency during which CPD was obtained in the period of not being registered with Council.
