The Graduate Certificate in Small Animal Emergency and Critical Care is a practical course for veterinary professionals seeking to provide more comprehensive treatment to animals in their care.

Covering the fundamental pathophysiological and clinical aspects of emergency and critical care (ECC) of the dog and cat, this is an in-depth professional development program taught by international experts. Additionally, it incorporates most of the theory required for preparation for the ANZCVS ECC membership examinations.

Through course work, realistic case studies, and assessments, students will gain vital understanding and confidence when dealing with ECC patients. You’ll learn to identify and address life-threatening conditions, develop knowledge in the monitoring of patients, and keep up to date with developments in a fast-moving field.
