BEVA Webcast service introduced
Service discounted for BEVA members

The BEVA has introduced a new Webcast service to make the 2011 BEVA Congress lectures accessible to those who were unable to attend as well as providing a refresher for those who were. Sponsored by Pfizer Animal Health, sponsor of the BEVA Congress Encore Room, the Webcasts are available at a discounted cost to all BEVA members. They are also available, at full cost, to non-members.

Commenting, BEVA CEO David Mountford said “Our Webcasting service is a great leap forward for the dissemination of veterinary knowledge, thanks to the cooperation of our speakers and to Pfizer’s continuing generosity. It gives any vet, anywhere in the world the chance to take advantage of the extensive 2011 Congress programme even if they couldn’t attend the event. It also gives those that did attend the 2011 Congress the flexibility to re-listen to any lectures that were of particular interest.”

The Webcasts, produced by Public-i in association with Vetstream, are being released monthly in blocks of 11, with the first block having been issued at the beginning of March. BEVA members will be alerted via the regular BEVA E-Newsletter, while non-member vets will be sent a one-off email to alert them to the new service. For further information, please visit www.beva.org.uk.
