To support you to develop specialist vocational skills teaching on this programme is a mix of scheduled and independent learning directly linked to BEVA and BAEDT professional practice requirements. The unique way in which this programme is designed enables you to explore anatomy, horse handling and theoretical aspects during your first semester which then progresses throughout the programme both onsite at Hartpury and within practise with a mentor. You will be assigned a BAEDT mentor during the latter half of your first year to enable you to develop your knowledge and practical skills out in the field on placement.
You’ll also develop your commercial business and client communication skills in order for you to be able to be best placed upon graduation* to excel as a professional Equine Dental Technician, blending expertise in equine dental techniques with business readiness.
