Who We Are

SPVS is a not-for-profit organisation for professionals within the veterinary industry. It promotes responsible leadership by providing tools and resources that enable members to develop and expand their business and leadership skills.

The Veterinary Management Group (VMG) represents and supports veterinary professionals in leadership or management roles.  Offering a range of resources for professional and personal development, the VMG is a collaborative community within which veterinary leaders can share experience, build relationships and work together to advance their practices and the wider profession.

SPVS and VMG have combined forces to provide a programme of non-clinical CPD, including the popular Focus Days, plus their annual Congress – the essential business, management and marketing event in the veterinary calendar.

These events are open to all, but members are offered discounted rates – contact us now to find out more about what we do and how to join:

2019 SPVS and VMG Combined CPD Programme

We will hold six regional training days in 2019, with the emphasis on people management, client care and quality improvement, and business finance. There are discounts for groups or multi-course bookings and we are extending our member rate to BVNA and VET Trust members on selected courses.

Vet Wellbeing in Practice

SPVS, VMG and RCVS Mind Matters Initiative will together run a series of Vet Wellbeing in Practice events in 2019 as a natural development of the Vet Wellbeing Awards.

The courses will share three year’s worth of examples of effective wellbeing initiatives and management techniques from the award winners and highly commended practices.
