Get unlimited access to over 140 veterinary CPD lectures, panel discussions and interactive sessions, and record up to 30 hours of CPD when attending all three days!
Explore a diverse range of clinical and non-clinical topics suitable for the whole practice. At BSAVA the programme is built on a ONE TEAM approach, meaning every session you see here is open to all within the profession. Whether you are a vet surgeon, an RVN or part of the wider practice team you can attend any session within the programme. And whilst we are committed to ensuring content is relevant to everyone, there are sessions that may appeal more to vets or focus on nursing — simply add the Vet+ or Nurse+ filters below to learn more about these particular sessions!
Don't forget we have lots of FREE CPD content on offer in the exhibition hall, open to all pass holders (including exhibition-only delegates). With Practical drop-in sessions, Clinical Abstracts & VN Case reports, wellbeing workshops, and exhibitor-led CPD in the Exhibition Theatre.
