RCVS releases VetGDP animations
Resources aim to make programme understandable for graduates, practices and advisers.
The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) has published a series of short animated resources to help members of the professions to gain a better understanding of the Veterinary Graduate Development Programme (VetGDP).
Developed following a consultation with the UK veterinary professions, the programme must be completed by all veterinary graduates entering the profession for the first time, and provides workplace-based support to develop graduates' clinical and professional capabilities.
Both the veterinary graduates who undertake the programme, and those interested in becoming trained VetGDP advisers will need to understand the programme, how it works and what is required of them.
The College has created the short animations to provide guidance on the following areas:
Further questions about VetGDP can be sent to the RCVS Education team at vetgdp@rcvs.org.uk.
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.
