RCVS Knowledge has updated and expanded its free evidence-based veterinary medicine (EBVM) course and it is now available on RCVS Knowledge Learn, the charity's new elearning platform.

The course offers veterinary surgeons and students six hours of CPD covering the five stages of EBVM and an overview of its evolution. 

Users can progress through the six modules in order, or dip in and out of individual sections to deepen their knowledge in particular areas. The course includes a number of practical examples and quizzes, and there's a certificate of completion at the end.

The course can also be used as a reference tool for specific aspects of EBVM, such as how to search the literature effectively.

RCVS Knowledge says the new release of EBVM Learning has been well received by veterinary surgeons and nurses who helped test the course. Lucie Goodwin MRCVS said, simply: “This course is excellent.”
 
Chris Gush, Executive Director of RCVS Knowledge (pictured right), said: “This fresh iteration of our EBVM Learning course is the culmination of a huge amount of committed work from an international network of leaders in EBVM, and we are proud to launch it on our new, accessible platform RCVS Knowledge Learn. The course constitutes an important way in which the charity supports all veterinary practitioners to advance the quality of care they provide through evidence-based veterinary medicine, regardless of their role, location or background.”
