The Veterinary Laboratory Association® (VLA) is an international nonprofit veterinary organization in support of diagnostic laboratories. This association was formed in 1989 for the purpose of providing consistency between veterinary diagnostic laboratories, which ultimately improves animal welfare.
The VLA owns the Veterinary Laboratory Association Quality Assurance Program (VLA-QAP®), the most comprehensive veterinary proficiency program available to laboratories, and because Continuing Education is also a priority, the VLA sponsors periodic learning opportunities such as hands on workshops, meetings and webinars.
