Invitation

INVITATION LETTER

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of the Turkish Small Animal Veterinary Association (TSAVA–KHVHD), it is our great pleasure to invite you to the 20th TSAVA International Continuing Education Congress.

This special congress, which will be held on November 5–7, 2026, in Istanbul at the Wyndham Grand Istanbul Levent Hotel & Conference Center, aims to be more than just a scientific meeting; it is designed to be a platform where knowledge sharing, experience exchange, and professional collaboration come together at the highest level.

While shaping this year’s program, we focused on the real challenges we face in daily clinical practice. We prioritized content that directly contributes to clinical decision-making, strengthens our professional confidence, and provides practical value for everyday work. With the valuable contributions of distinguished national and international speakers, we believe the scientific program will offer meaningful and tangible benefits to every participant.

On the first day of the congress, our pre-congress symposium, titled “Challenging Cases. Difficult Decisions.”, will provide an opportunity to explore complex clinical dilemmas that we all encounter from time to time, and to re-evaluate our decision-making processes through different perspectives.

In addition, our limited-capacity workshops are designed to support hands-on learning, ensuring that theoretical knowledge is effectively translated into clinical practice.

Beyond the scientific program, we believe that coming together with colleagues, sharing experiences, and building new collaborations are just as valuable as the knowledge itself. For this reason, we are preparing our social program with the same level of care.

This congress represents the culmination of 20 years of dedication and experience, and having you with us would make it even more meaningful.

Because we know that some decisions are shaped by knowledge, and others by experience.

And that experience grows stronger when shared.

We warmly invite you to join us in Istanbul and be part of this special gathering.

Kind regards,

Erkut Gören, DVM

President, TSAVA
