It sounds like a good course did you find 5hours a week was enough study time?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: CPD courses</title><link>https://www.vetnurse.co.uk/thread/158947?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 23 Mar 2015 01:20:04 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">1a0763ec-3885-442c-853e-6cef656dfec5:e52f9b92-677a-4d18-960f-a1a47d308b06</guid><dc:creator>svngem</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Hi,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have just done the VetsNow ECC course. Personally I found it great and well worth the money. The course is easily laid out and you get great support from the tutors. You get a unit every 9 weeks and each unit has 3 assignments. They advised 5 hours a week for study. I work in a large mixed hospital and since doing the course I have found myself more confident with emergency patients and picking up on general things without even having to think twice about it. I would definitely recommend it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have just started the ISFM diploma in Feline Nursing but I&amp;#39;m not enjoying this one half as much&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
