Dechra Endocrinology Graduate Seminar

Through significant research and product development Dechra has clearly established itself as an expert in endocrinology. Today we are leading the way in this field, providing effective treatment for pets with endocrine diseases. However, endocrinology can frequently be seen as complicated or overwhelming in first opinion practice, and this can be heightened for recently graduated vets, who may not have dealt with such cases first hand. In order to combat this, Dechra have developed a seminar programme, specifically tailored to groups of new or recent graduate vets. Using interactive case studies and up to date evidence-based medicine as the basis for teaching, delegates will improve their knowledge of Canine Hyperadrenocorticism, Feline Hyperthyroidism, Canine Hypothyroidism and Canine Hypoadrenocorticism. Interactive TurningPoint ® technology is used to bring case studies to life, and enable delegates to relate learning to experiences within the clinic. This is combined with group work and open discussion which encourages reflective practice, in line with the RCVS PDP requirement, and their pilot scheme for future CPD requirements. Our aim is that all delegates leave feeling equipped with the skills and knowledge required to tackle the more challenging medicine cases. A sample agenda for a two day seminar, including learning objectives, is laid out for you, however the length and content can be adapted to suit. The attached programme provides delegates with 11 hours of CPD. Testimonials from delegates who have recently attended the course are also provided for you.

Dechra will cover the cost of speakers for the seminar. Course notes, learning resources and support materials are also provided free of charge. Additional costs (where applicable) are covered by yourselves.

If you feel this seminar could make a positive addition to your recent graduate scheme, or you would like to discuss this concept further, then please do not hesitate to contact us.
