Brilliant practical sessions with lively in-depth discussions. Good time frame over which to learn and feel improvement!

The best bit is being able to return to it when you like.' 'Found the CPD on osteosarcsoma particularly useful when discussing with owners about survival rates'

‘Very informative, clear and easy to follow presentation. Extremely accessible way of clocking up those CPD hours and keeping up to date and refreshing knowledge.’

Great experience at CPD Solutions learning about Local Anaesthetic Techniques. Would definitely recommend! Came with an idea of what I wanted to learn but came away with so much more!

'Very enjoyable and informative. Lots of time using the Ultrasound machine. (Which was great) Feel a lot more confident about scanning in practice now.'

This is the best practical session I have ever attended. Lots of video clips detailing the surgical procedures. Practical sessions are excellent, one to one coaching is always available. I will definitely recommend this course.

I found the course excellent. The practical sessions were also of great value, with good equipment and plenty of time to practise techniques. Overall, I would highly recommend this course to anyone thinking of embarking on Spinal Surgery.

'I am amazed at how much we have achieved in just 2 days. I'm looking forward to level 2 now. I will be a lot more confident at using ultrasound in future.'

'A dog with a descemetocele would have lost its eye if I hadn't gained the confidence to perform a pedicle graft through a Keysteps Online programme.'

Really informative course with in depth detail and practical advice. Video and photographic information especially helpful

'Section on status epilecticus-had a dog that would not stop seizuring until I used the protocol given. Also gave me the information I needed to give a clear account to the owners.'

This has been such a great experience. I have come away learning more than I thought I would and now feel much happier with not only performing an ultrasound but also changing the settings to achieve a better image.

Amazing. Really good for vet surgeons that are not comfortable around U/S machines. The course offers a good introduction to U/S basics. Practical part quite long and allows us to practise and feel more confident.

I found the CPD very interesting and helpful. Having the opportunity to do scans and improve. The speakers explained everything and gave many useful tips. Time was more than enough for everyone to practice.

An excellent practical course with patient and skilled tutors. Covers all the major emergency procedures that you worry about on call. I am much more confident with the surgeries and have picked up lots of useful tips.

'The course content far exceeded my expectations. Refreshing to cover a subject in such depth & detail. Also was by far the best lecturer I have come across & thoroughly enjoyed my dat. Would recommend this course to every nurse with a interest in dentistry.'

The knowledge I have reinforced alongside the surgical techniques I have learned will allow me to manage eye cases better, and to basically save eyes that would otherwise have been enucleation because referral is impractical for many owners.

Tremendous level of content, high standard, excellent presenter, very personable despite it being a recorded session.

'First thyroidectomy very successful thanks to the video and tips.'

Excellent delivery of the course. Great balance of the theory and the practical sessions. It makes heart scan so much easier! Very informative, interactive supported with the clinical cases. Strongly recommended.

‘Thanks Martha for the webinar yesterday - my first! It was a good use of time which in my life is very important.

Brilliant and very applicable to general practice.

'I performed a superficial caudal epigastric skin flap on a dog who had tried to jump a barbed wire fence causing a massive skin deficit in her groin. I would not have been confident to do this without the video on Keysteps online which shows step by step how to do this technique and explains complications that can occur. I don't think I would have had a successful outcome without the knowledge that Keysteps gave me.'

'Superb - I feel more confident now caring for tortoises and communicating with keepers to ensure correct husbandry. Learning techniques such as O-tubing extremely valuable.'

My knowledge, confidence and ability have significantly improved. The tutors are friendly, approachable and very happy to share their knowledge and practical expertise. I would thoroughly recommend this course.

‘The ongoing access is the gem of your course!’

‘Re capping my knowledge was most useful and I found the multiple choice questions helpful to check I had understood what was discussed.’

'Having already had a very high opinion of CPD Solutions Orthopaedic courses, this course met and exceeded my already high expectations. Application of techniques learnt today are applicable to a very wide range of commonly encountered fracture scenarios and are likely to be put to near daily use in our busy centre.'

‘For the first time in my life I feel I could make a reasonable attempt at putting a plate on! Orthopaedics seems less frightening – the wetlabs were invaluable.’

‘I have just attended the webinar on feline urethral obstruction: it has been super! Martha has been really useful and clear. ‘

'Speaker absolutely excellent. Lots of good, practical tips. I learnt about how best we can use our practices current endoscopy and what to purchase to improve it.'

Brilliant course. Tutor very enthusiastic, small class size which is optimal to get a lot of time in lab, and one to one with tutor. Venue perfect.

'This was an excellent course, I now know what I should be doing when scanning hearts so will be scanning many more.'

Reflecting upon my own cases through literature searching for essays during this course and learning to appraise existing evidence bases for treatment protocols we use day-to-day in our clinic has been invaluable, providing me with skills that I will continue to use for the rest of my career.

Lots of useful information ,presented in a clear and easy to understand way. Various topics, lots of in depth advice that are easy to fit into daily practice

I finally feel confident to be extracting teeth safely and with the least trauma possible. Dentistry is less stressful.

The online course gave me the flexibility and extra time for me to go back to the video to review its content. The flexibility can go back and replay the video during a period of time ( e.g. 10mths). As a working clinician with young kid is difficult to find quiet and regular time to watch the video. This is a excellent review. Give more more in depth knowledge and practical approach to cardiology

'Can complete CPD at work -no need for long days travelling by train, or giving up evenings.'

‘Very good engaging speaker, easy to listen to approachable. Representative models were effective and simple. I feel like I understand the basic principles of the techniques practiced and it has given me confidence to have a go in practice.’

Absolutely perfect course! Well presented with all the relevant information. Speaker is a true professional with vast knowledge.Fantastic CPD

'Superb! I would not hesitate to recommend this course to colleagues.'

Great balance of teaching through both practical Endoscopy but also the techniques, theory, what’s normal and what’s not. Taken me to the level I will be happy to go back to the surgery and get straight into working up cases and get stuck in!

One thing I really like about these webinars is being able to watch them as many times as you like, within a certain period. It's also really good not having to drive anywhere.’

‘Just for the record - I think this is a wonderful service.’

This course provided a great combination of theory and practical techniques. The information was very well presented and one to one feedback given during the wet lab. I now feel confident about getting on with exploratory laparotomies and beyond!

‘I would just like to say how useful the webinar on the Diabetic Ketoacidosis was - the hour just flew by - I had to watch it yesterday as I was unable to watch it live - very good! Thanks.’

The content of the webinars - easy to understand, lots of nuggets of useful information. Aimed perfectly for the emergency practitioner. The study notes are a great takeaway. it was great to have one on one contact and be able to ask questions directly to the lecturer - who was brilliant!

Completing the PgCert has given me both practical skills and confidence to forward my interest in veterinary dentistry and allowed me to provide the best patient care possible. The tutors are excellent and very approachable, and the content is very clinically relevant. I am happy I made the decision to enrol.

CPD Solutions have been fantastic.A huge help to me, and boost to my surgical skills and confidence. I’d highly recommend STS Refresher (and CPD Solutions in general) to any vet looking for relevant, comprehensive and interesting CPD.

‘Thank you for offering such a great way to achieve further knowledge.’

Excellent course content, level was just right for me. Really good balance of lectures and practical sessions too. The speaker was excellent, friendly and approachable throughout the day. Definitely will be recommending CPD Solutions to my colleagues.
