Our Courses & CPD: new 2010 schedule.

"The best day of CPD I have ever been to." (Victor Bates BVMS MRCVS: Abercorn Veterinary Clinics)

DentalVets are a major course provider in the UK and Ireland. We also provide the lectures and clinical instruction for the Universities of Edinburgh, Glasgow and London Veterinary Colleges. We can provide courses for your practice personnel in your premises. A fact sheet can be downloaded to guide you.

Dental CPD by DentalVets

We provide courses for vets and nurses in our own referral clinic. These courses are designed for small groups and are highly practical. Your practice can arrange specifically targeted CPD for a small, focused group or a larger, general group. In addition, delegates can book singly. These are run monthly in North Berwick. Foundation course concentrate on essential skill that vets and nurses require to provide up to date dentistry in their own practice. including dental radiography, extraction technique, advanced periodontal surgery etc. Certificates of attendance are provided and detailed written reports are sent to the practice afterwards to list achievements and reinforce recommendations. The course brochure can be downloaded via the link on the right sidebar.

Advanced courses will be available on request for those individuals who already possess the basic skills of the foundation course.

See below if you require local accommodation. We can assist with this. E-mail Kath in our office. North Berwick is 30 minutes from Edinburgh by train or car. The airport is 45 minutes away and is served by all the low cost carriers in the UK. The nearest main-line station is Dunbar. We can advise best travel options and arrange local (cheaper) taxis to pick up and drop off at the airport. For groups this is very inexpensive.

An testimonial article by John Bower BVSc MRCVS ( ex president BVA and BSAVA) whose Plymouth veterinary hospital has used our courses since 1992 was published (July 2003) in Veterinary Times. A copy is attached to the FAQ sheet.

In addition we have testimonials from many satisfied delegates who often say this is the best day's CPD they have ever attended!

Costs are £380 plus VAT per vet and £250 plus VAT for nurses. Discounts are available for practices that book exclusive days.

We can arrange accommodation if required in the local area. We can provide a short list of well priced local B&B's and hotels for delegates. In most cases a discount is available for course delegates. For families, the McDonald Marine Hotel is worth a look. It is a lovely Victorian hotel with new pool and leisure centre located on the 16th fairway of the world famous North Berwick Golf Club and 100 metres from the beach.
