Global continuing education provider Improve International recently hosted its first U.S. course at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine in Florida, with 13 veterinarians in attendance. Led by Brian Beale, DVM, DACVS, and Stanley Kim, BVSc, MS, both diplomates of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons, the course, which focused on the use of the tibial-plateau-leveling osteotomy (TPLO) for cruciate repair, was comprised of both in-class lectures and hands-on, practical sessions. “We were delighted to welcome delegates to our first U.S. course and to have received enthusiastic feedback,” said John Douglass, assistant managing director, Improve. “It was an important milestone for us as we celebrate our arrival in the U.S. and our 20th year in business. We look forward to bringing more of our premium CE to U.S. veterinarians in the coming years.” Founded in 1998 by a team of veterinarians in the U.K., Improve announced its U.S. launch late last year, offering a range of short RACE-approved courses for veterinary professionals. The company, who has instructed more than 20,000 veterinarians across 20 countries, will soon offer more in-depth, annual courses in the U.S., which will help practitioners expand their knowledge and skills in select disciplines.
