To be eligible to enroll in the ECFVG certification program, an individual must be a graduate of, or final-year student at, an AVMA-listed veterinary college. An AVMA-listed veterinary college is any non-AVMA-accredited college outside the United States or Canada that is recognized by the World Health Organization or the government of its own country, and whose graduates are eligible to practice in that country. The World Health Organization last published the World Directory of Veterinary Schools in 1973. Additional listed schools also are described in the World Veterinary Directory 1991, edited by the World Veterinary Association in cooperation with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the World Health Organization, and the Office International des Epizootics. Should a graduate of a non-listed college apply to the ECFVG program, the ECFVG Coordinator requests that the college obtain a letter from the federal Ministry of Education indicating that the college is recognized by the government of that country and that its graduates are eligible to practice veterinary medicine within that country. After the ECFVG reviews and approves necessary documentation, the college is added to the list. A graduate of a non-listed veterinary college cannot enroll in the ECFVG program until the college becomes listed.
