Husband and wife Cat Henstridge and Dave Hough MsRCVS have set up vCPD, a low cost CPD company based in the West Midlands.
Cat said: "Many of you will have noticed how CPD has become extremely expensive with some of the larger providers. Single days of theory based lectures are often well over £300+VAT, even for vet nurses, and more practical sessions can be far more than this. In these tough economic times it is a cost many practices can ill afford but one which, due to the RCVS regulations on Continuing Professional Development for both Vets and Vet Nurses, they are often forced to meet.
"vCPD is very different. Courses cost only £150 +VAT , all of which are given by highly qualified and experienced professionals (often the very same ones used by the more expensive companies) at an extremely convenient location, with excellent transport links and plenty of free parking, in the West Midlands. We are initially concentrating on vet nurses but will be expanding to vets later in the year."
