This program is designed for veterinarians, vet nurses and vet techs who are new to ultrasound, and would like to learn how to use it confidently.

This programme comes with lifelong support and community membership.

Support always on hand

This programme is designed to take you from total beginner, to fully confident with using ultrasound to detect and monitor pregnancy in your patients. By honing your skills in one specific area, you will have the confidence and the formula to be able to expand into other areas of ultrasound in the future (for example, general abdominal or echocardiography), should you wish to.
