What our speakers say:
“Both in the lead up to and during the 2017 South Africa event, the organisation by the VetPD team was outstanding; the
team were very approachable, highly efficient and extremely accommodating. The location was stunning. The highlight
of the event (with the exception of the educational material of course!) were the twice daily safaris which “book-ended”
the lectures and wetlabs; as well as providing exposure to the varied local wildlife, they offered a great environment for
social interaction. This, in turn, led to a very comfortable atmosphere for both the lecture and wetlab sessions, attended
by delegates with a healthy variety of experience and expertise. A thoroughly enjoyable and memorable experience!”
