Overview

The AVA Summer Series is a new CPD event designed to fill a gap in the veterinary CPD calendar and provides a series of high quality 2 hour sessions to delve deeper and more thoroughly into a number of the big questions encountered in veterinary practice today. It is an event not to be missed and offers a flexible and on-demand virtual format!

The Summer Series is a virtual event and consists of an extensive list of high-level masterclasses and Group-based workshops. Individual sessions can be purchased, or you and practices can sign up to the whole virtual event to receive all-access.

All sessions will also be recorded and be available online for 3 months from February 2021.

The Masterclasses have been chosen to address specific topics at a high and more detailed level and will be presented by some of the best and most skilled people within our profession.

 The topics vary from:

• Linda Fleeman presenting on The Complicated Diabetic
• Gerry Skinner discussing the Neurological Assessment of the Rabbit
• Martin Havlicek discussing the Intricacies of skin flaps
• Simon Roe from North Carolina detailing the Options for managing the arthritic hip including total hip replacement
• Jason Mouatt covering the Fracture game
• Jacqui Ley and Kersti Seksel will be presenting a session on the ins and outs of Behaviour Psychopharmacology
• Williana Basuki will be upgrading your Interpreting Dental Images

Two Masterclasses and a Workshop for 3 nights a week across February and March 2021. Live sessions are on from 7pm - 9pm AEDT (Sydney/Melbourne Time).

Case discussions will happen in the second hour of the presentation. Can’t make it to all of the sessions? You can access them virtually as a recording after the live component.
