ECC on YouTube

Vets Now have published a video on YouTube aimed at giving graduates an insight into life working in Emergency and Critical Care.

The ‘Cutting Edge’ initiative is the first training programme of its kind in the UK and this week will see up to 40 vets who graduated between 2006 and 2009 selected for a place on the 10 week fast track training programme, taking them straight to the heart of emergency, working as a Veterinary Surgeon in a Vets Now clinic.

Two fast track training programmes will run in 2010/11, each taking 20 vets through 10 weeks of intensive ECC training on a robust programme which has been designed by Vets Now Clinical Director and ECC Diplomate, Amanda Boag.

Graduates who are interested in applying for a place on the ‘Cutting Edge’ training programme should contact the Vets Now recruitment team on 01383 841181 or email cuttingedge@vets-now.com.

The Vets Now Recruitment Case Study video can be viewed on YouTube by entering vetsnowcuttingedge and also via the ‘Cutting Edge’ Facebook page.
