Juliet Whatley has joined the RCVS Veterinary Nursing External Verifier (EV) team. The EV team is responsible for verifying the performance of Veterinary Nursing Approved Centres (VNACs), to assure the quality and consistency of NVQ training and assessment against national requirements.

Juliet replaces Susan Newham, and was previously Head of Centre at Hartpury College. She is not a new face to the RCVS - she was part of the team in 1999 under a different structure of 17 ‘sessional' EVs - and we are pleased to welcome her back.

The changes to the EV team have provided the opportunity for the centre roster to be reviewed, so that relationships can stay fresh and objective. The new EV territories will take affect in the New Year and VNACs will be notified of any changes shortly.
