&lt;p&gt;BVNA congress will be running student and behaviour streams on Friday this year which they may find useful. &amp;nbsp;We are currently finalising content but keep an eye on the BVNA website for more information.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: cpd needed for animal care assistants</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/158373?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Wed, 11 Feb 2015 12:56:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:bb04efa6-78d5-464a-8bb6-f1ae5b87b321</guid><dc:creator>Mark Hedberg</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;[quote user=&amp;quot;Alison Clare Hickman&amp;quot;]Calling Mark Hedberg, YOO HOO!!

&lt;p&gt;We certainly do - we&amp;#39;ve got an extensive range of behaviour courses that would suit an ANA. Behaviour, first aid, tellington touch, dog handling - if you check out the &amp;#39;animal care&amp;#39; and &amp;#39;animal behaviour&amp;#39; section of CAW&amp;#39;s cpd website I&amp;#39;d like to think you&amp;#39;d find something nice! :)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best wishes,&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;We&amp;nbsp; run a couple of courses that are suitable for ANAs or SVNs - we have a 2-week one starting on 13th March - &amp;#39;Low Stress Handling in Cats&amp;#39;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our courses are online, but run as groups so everyone works together and it&amp;#39;s a really friendly and suppportive learning environment. We also have &amp;#39;Low Stress Handling in Dogs&amp;#39; coming soon - and there may be other courses that are of interest too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Take a look and email me if you want any more info: &lt;a target="_blank" href="http://www.oncoreepd.co.uk/"&gt;http://www.oncoreepd.co.uk/&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/p&gt;
