Thank you for your reply. Its definately something i am interested in doing although i have recently heard the rcvs do one as well. Im not sure how much it differs from the rvc diploma. Good luck with your exams!

hi claire, i am currently doing the rvc diploma and have nearly completed my first year (exams in a mth!!). the course has been great and i have learnt loads of new things and made me think very differently about my job!

the structure is great and the tutours have all been very supportive. the course does take up a lot of time but it is well worth putting the effort it.

you do need to be prepared to juggle work, social life and study if you want to do the course. but i would highly reccommend it.

I started the course a couple of weeks ago and its going well so far (there will be a few threads on the search option as there were other queries a while back, I'll try and find them). The first intake for the course was only last year so its still very new with only 1 intake per year.

The course is mainly done online though there is a compulsory study week at the end of this month. Layout seems good though with details about assessments etc for that unit on there too. You also get information about how to write out assignments, referencing etc which is very handy!

There are a couple of others on here that will be going into 2nd year so hopefully they will have more info.
