About LAWTE ...
The Laboratory Animal Welfare Training Exchange is an organization of people who train in and for the laboratory animal science field. By sharing ideas on methods and materials for training, our members can learn together how best to meet the training and qualification requirements of national regulations and guidelines.
Since 1994, conferences have been held every two years for trainers to exchange information on their training programs in the U.S. and abroad. They have been attended by institutional representatives from the U.S. and around the world.
