BVA drops prices for Congress
The British Veterinary Association (BVA) is dramatically cutting the cost of attending its annual Congress this September in order to continue providing high-quality, affordable CPD.
The congress, covering two days, will be almost half the usual delegate fee. Members of the BVA will be charged £150 plus VAT and non-members £300 plus VAT. This gives delegates the change to attend up to 11 hours of small animal CPD provided by the University of Liverpool.
BVA Past President Harvey Locke worked with the University of Liverpool to create the clinical CPD programme. He said: “BVA is committed to providing high-quality CPD to our members at affordable rates. We look forward to welcoming vets to Liverpool in September for our great value CPD programme.”
The choice of topics this year includes:
- recent advances in the management of elbow dysplasia and cruciate rupture
- responsible use of medicines
- how to get the best out of your Ultrasound machine for suspected cardiac disease
- recent advances in the management of common tumours
- management of the collapsing patient
- management of acute gastroenteritis
The full programme and further information is available here.
Two independent vets have launched a podcast to help owners strengthen their bond with pets. Dr Maggie Roberts and Dr Vanessa Howie, who have worked in both veterinary practice and major charities, are keen to use their experience to enable people to give pets a better life.
