Additional Board Information
Committee on Humane Euthanasia (COHE):
The Committee on Humane Euthanasia is established for the purpose of training, examining, and certifying euthanasia agencies and euthanasia technicians.
Certified Euthanasia Agency (CEA):
A certified euthanasia agency is a law enforcement agency, an animal control agency, a humane society, or an animal shelter that has been inspected and certified by the Committee on Humane Euthanasia or the Idaho Board of Veterinary Medicine (Board). To become a CEA, the agency must contact the Board and request an application. Once certified, the CEA must register with the Idaho Board of Pharmacy (BOP) and the US Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and apply for controlled substance licenses.
Certified Euthanasia Technician (CET):
A certified euthanasia technician is a person that has fulfilled the certification requirements and has been certified by the Idaho Board of Veterinary Medicine to perform euthanasia as an employee of the certified euthanasia agency. To become a CET, the CEA’s Lead CET must request an application from the Board of Veterinary Medicine. Once certified, the CET must register with the Idaho Board of Pharmacy (BOP) and apply for a controlled substance license using the CEA’s DEA control substance license.

Q: What are the continuing education requirements for Veterinarians and Certified Veterinary Technicians?
A: All ‘active status’ Veterinarians and Certified Veterinary Technicians (CVTs) in Idaho are required to earn and report Continuing Education (CE) credits every two (2) years. That 2-year period starts July 1stof the year of initial licensure. Example: If you receive your new license in January of 2021, your 2-year CE period is from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023. CE courses taken before or after that time period, (ex: March of 2020), would not count toward your 15 credits.
The link “2022 Renewal CE Vet & CVT Requirements” below shows the requirements for Vets and CVTs.
Q: How do I submit my continuing education credits?
A: CE courses and completion certifications should be added to your online profile by using the link IBVMChanges (Login) (idaho.gov). Your reporting year can also be found in your online profile by going to page three (3) and looking for “Report Year.”
