Vetpol said that its latest Munch & Learn CPD event, held in October, was a success, with 420 registered delegates.

The event covered a wide range of subjects covering companion animal, equine, farm and poultry delivered by expert speakers.

Caroline Johnson, a director of Vetpol, said: “Munch & Learn features a great mix of SQPs from across retail and members of the vet practice team.”

At Munch & Learn, participants took part in a number of opinion polls.

Mrs Johnson said: “Asked ‘does your company value SQPs?’, 60% of participants said yes, 20% said no and a further 20% were unsure. When asked if participants thought veterinary surgeons are over-prescribing parasiticides, 80% said yes, and 20% said no.”

All the presentations are available to those who registered for up to 12 weeks following the event.

“The M&L platform is still busy,” Mrs Johnson said.
