A virtual version of the VBTP will also be offered in 2022. The daily agenda and registration for both in person and virtual can be found at https://www.cfsph.iastate.edu/IICAB/vbtp/. Participants can register for a single day or the entire program. The program will be held at the Gateway Hotel in Ames. A block of rooms is available at the hotel. The Veterinary Biologics Training Program provides an overview of the USDA regulatory process for assuring the purity, safety, potency, and efficacy of veterinary biologics (vaccines, bacterins, antisera, diagnostic kits and other products of biological origin). Representatives from the USDA Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service’s (APHIS) Center for Veterinary Biologics (CVB) present information on the requirements and processes for licensing/registration and testing of veterinary biological products. The inspection and compliance process for production, release and post-marketing surveillance of veterinary biological products is also covered in both lectures and workshops. Professionals working in the veterinary biologics industry, researchers developing biologics, and regulatory personnel are encouraged to attend and learn about current CVB requirements. This course is a highly regarded overview of the current regulatory guidelines in the U.S. The Program is organized by the Institute for International Cooperation in Animal Biologics (IICAB) and is co-sponsored by the USDA APHIS CVB and the Iowa State University College of Veterinary Medicine. The program has been offered 25 times since 1996; over 3000 individuals have attended the program including more than 875 international participants from 96 countries. The Institute for International Cooperation in Animal Biologics also offers several online courses covering the constantly changing field of immunology.
