At Vets Cymru we have designed a CPD programme that is open to every attendee, regardless of job role. Whether you’re a veterinary nurse, a practice manager, a student, or part of the wider clinical team, you’re welcome in every stream and every session.

If you’ve attended in previous years and felt unsure about what content was suitable for nursing roles, we want to reassure you: You are valued, your role is vital, and there is high‑quality content throughout the event designed with you in mind.

We know time is super important so we have put together this guide, with some nurse-specific highlights, to allow you to plan your visit to Vets Cymru and make the most of what is on offer. And of course, maximise your CPD hours!

Exclusively within the Small Animal Vet Nurse Stream, are two hands-on practical workshops taking place in the Veterinary Education Centre's clinical skills room! These sessions are pre-bookable due to limited spaces so be sure to reserve your spot when buying your ticket online. Already booked? Contact the Events Team on events@bsava.com to be added.

All sessions in the programme are open to all. Whilst many may have a nurse-focus, and others viewed through the vet-lens, the content is designed to be relevant and valuable to all. Offering shared insights and collaborative approaches that support whole-team learning. This is often where nurses gain some of the most transferable, practice-wide skills. If something interests you, please go ahead and add it to your schedule, you won’t be out of place.
