New course to help vets improve leadership
RCVS vice president Amanda Boag launched the course at BSAVA Congress.
RCVS to pilot the programme later this year 

A free course to help vets improve their leadership skills was launched at BSAVA Congress today (5 April).

The Edward Jenner Veterinary Leadership programme, spearheaded by the RCVS, was developed in conjunction with the NHS Leadership Academy, which has taught 55,000 professionals.

As part of the course, an audio drama based in the fictional county of Glenvern will tell the stories of different vets working in various scenarios. The first two episodes are now available, while the full course will be piloted later this year.

The programme will explain the importance of leadership, both for the wellbeing of vets and clinically. It will also help vets to become more confident, effective leaders, develop an inclusive leadership culture and apply leadership skills in practice.

In total, the course provides up to 35 hours of CPD and an NHS Leadership Academy Award in Leadership Foundations.
