Continuing efforts to improve working conditions and management practices in the profession the BVA is offering new management seminars. 

These will be on

 

  • Getting the most out of your veterinary practice team (held on the 22nd April)
  • Getting the most out of your job (held on the 23rd April)

 

Both courses include a mental wellbeing element and both offer advice on contracts of employment and employment law.

 

The practice team seminar also looks at management and communication techniques to help prevent stress, distress, anger and conflict.  This course teaches managers skills which can help improve the mental health of the whole practice team.

 

The second seminar and workshop is aimed at giving junior vets a solid background in their legal rights. It also shows skills and techniques for taking control of their veterinary career and how to perform well under pressure to help achieve and maintain good mental health.
