Keeping up to date with veterinary CPD
As you know, CPD or continuing professional development is a requirement for all veterinary surgeons and veterinary nurses on the RCVS Register. Veterinary surgeons need to complete 35 hours per year, and veterinary nurses, 15 hours.
All your CPD needs to be recorded using the 1CPD platform, and reflection is now an important step.
More information can be found on the RCVS website, including what to do if you don’t think that you will be able to meet your CPD requirements.
Free education for animal owners
Finding trusted educational content for pet owners can be challenging. We have webinars for horse owners and cat owners to help owners better understand their pets to help improve animal welfare.
