The basic requirements to become a veterinarian in the United States are to obtain a DVM or VMD (the two degrees are equivalent), pass the NAVLE and obtain a State license to practice.

Additional training can include internships, residencies, PhD, Master's degree and non-traditional certification such as acupuncture.

What additional training do you need to be promoted as a veterinarian?

Usually none - there are relatively few promotions within veterinary medicine outside of buying into a clinic and shifting from being just a veterinarian to a veterinarian/clinic owner. However, you can go for board certification, which usually requires a three-year minimum residency for training, or you can go back to school for supplemental degrees like an MBA.
