As we push the veterinary profession forward, we seek to foster leadership among dedicated veterinarians.
The Power of Ten, made possible with help from Elanco, CareCredit, and the FVMA Foundation, is an annual leadership program for which FVMA Representatives and Board Members select recent graduates in the veterinary medicine field, who are FVMA members, to undergo a specially designed curriculum. This curriculum is designed to foster and support leadership potential in the profession through learning experiences that will engage and develop foundational skills in leadership, communication, and business.
Application: Available here in May 2023
Application cycles for the Power of Ten begin every summer

Through the Power of Ten, the FVMA’s goals are for our young professionals to:
Ten participants will be selected from an applicant pool to participate in the Power of Ten. Participants will join a network of peers in a series of learning experiences and mentoring sessions during the course of a year. The program is intended to be a pathway to help selected recent DVM graduates maneuver and successfully handle the challenges of their new professional environments. The Power of Ten program will also create a sense of community and build lasting bonds with other members of the leadership academy class.
In-person learning experiences will be scheduled to minimize the impact on the participants’ working hours – and the entire program is designed to garner support from practice owners who recognize their key responsibility in developing veterinary leaders. Participants will have the opportunity to participate in workshops, webinars, and other unique offerings exclusive to the Power of Ten. Participants will receive full-tuition scholarships and public recognize upon their graduation from the Power of Ten program.
As we celebrate the young leaders who make our program possible every year at our Annual Conference, we also induct the upcoming class who will continue the program’s mission across the next year.
