The course lasts four years and covers only two species: horses and dogs.
- The first three years consist of 20 hours of classes per week spread over two consecutive days + three three-day practical seminars and one mandatory offshore seminar lasting a minimum of six days per year. Other optional three-day clinical seminars are offered throughout the year. These courses focus mainly on learning fundamental subjects (anatomy, biomechanics, etc.) and one-third of the time is devoted to practical training.
The terms and conditions are provided on the first day of the academic year when the internal regulations are signed. - At the end of the third year, students are already able to approach animals on their own and are, of course, covered by our insurance outside of school.
- The fourth year is reserved solely for practical training, consisting of seven 3.5-day seminars and a six-day offshore seminar at the end of the year before the exam in June. However, additional seminars, such as equine or canine emergencies, among others, will be added between the seminars normally scheduled.
The course is 700 hours per year, combining theory and practical hours as well as hours for collaborative research work.
