A strong foundation in emergency practice is essential for every vet. We can be thrust into an urgent situation at any time of the day (or night!). We have structured this page as 'Foundations in Medicine and Surgery' to emphasise the need to develop a solid base in both emergency medicine, and surgery, early in your career. They will also serve as a springboard for further specialisation and advanced training.

So if you are looking for a general refresher and an update in emergency medicine and surgery, then these courses are ideal for you.

You can use focused Online Mini Series™ Courses to build on your core skills, but why not try one of our Practical Courses?

On this course you’ll learn how to effectively manage common surgical emergencies that you are likely to see in practice, to ensure the best chance of a successful outcome.
