Nursing and education heads join RCVS
Christine Warman

College welcomes new heads of department

The RCVS has welcomed a new head of veterinary nursing and head of education to its staff, following the early retirement of Libby Earle in April.

Registered veterinary nurse Julie Dugmore has replaced Libby as head of veterinary nursing, having joined the college in 2002 as an external verifier.

Julie currently works as VN quality manager at the college, and will take up her new post on October 1.

 

Meanwhile, Christine Warham will be welcomed to the role of head of education in early November. The position became available when Freda Andrews was promoted to the new role of director of education. 

 

With a range of experience in the education sector, Christine established her own consultancy in 2000, providing a range of project management, qualification development and quality assurance services.

 

Christine also worked for the Qualifications and Curriculum Authority, where she coordinated the occupational standards programme, and the National Council for Vocational Qualifications as a development coordinator.

 

In 2006, she also provided project management services and developed research funding proposals for the RCVS Gateway to the Professions careers project.

 

Commenting on the appointments, Freda said: "I am delighted to welcome Julie and Christine to their new posts. 

 

"Their combined experience will give us a strong foundation for the ongoing development of the education and training functions within the College, for both veterinary nurses and veterinary surgeons."
