Why have you rebranded the event?

When Teamwork Professionals acquired the rights to run the congress from its previous organiser, we inherited the name – but that name exists elsewhere with other events and products that are nothing to do with us. This brings the event in line with our major magazine brand, The Veterinary Edge.

​

When will you release programme details?

We are in the process of confirming speakers and subjects – email chris@teamworkprofessionals.co.uk to be added to our database and you'll be kept in the loop.

​

What are the rates?

We have three sets of rates – and it makes sense to book as early as possible:

​

​

• Veterinary surgeons 2 days £380, 1 day £200

• Veterinary nurses 2 days £280, 1 day £190

​

NB. All rates exclude VAT @20%

​

What do we get for our money?

You get:

• Up to 14 hours of CPD across two days, or 7 for one day

• Refreshments throughout – tea, coffee, infusions, biscuits and fruit

• A chunky congress handbook featuring all the session synopses, exhibitor details, etc.

​

What's so great about Sandy Park?

The conferencing facilities at Sandy Park, home to the Exeter Chiefs, are the best in the area:

• Spacious, comfortable, air-conditioned rooms spread across two easily-accessible floors with lift access

• State-of-the-art A/V system

• Excellent catering

• Clean, modern, well-maintained toilets

• Ample and free parking

​

Exeter is quite far away from me – why should I travel to Exeter?

The south-west has few options for CPD events, but our congress attracts delegates from all over the UK. Sandy Park is easily accessible from the M5 and A30, and Exeter Airport is just a few minutes away.

​

Will sessions be filmed?

This is a costly process involving expensive equipment and editing, and there are potential copyright issues. While there are choices between attending the main streams or workshops at some points, this is up to the individual.

 

Will I get a chance to talk to speakers?

Each session allows time for Q&A, and the speakers will invariably be milling around the exhibition and catering area during breaks – and if you attend on the first day, at the happy hour (free bar!) after sessions conclude.

​

Where can I stay?

Organisers and speakers stay at the on-site Courtyard Hotel, for which we are given a special rate. There are numerous other options nearby (not really walking distance).

​​

Are there any social events?

The organisers, some speakers and others can be found in the bar upstairs at The Courtyard Hotel each evening (the night before too). You are welcome to join us for a drink and/or dinner.
