Sheila and Mark
We know that your time is important and you want it to spend it as effectively as possible. Get the most out of your CPD by booking for VPMA Congress 2012. We promise you the very best in management CPD with advice and guidance from both UK and international experts in the veterinary field. There are three packed streams giving you vital information that you will be able to use and apply every day.
This year we’re bringing over an award-winning US team with VMC-Inc speakers Sheila Grosdidier and Mark Opperman for an intensive 2-day ‘HR Boot Camp’ on recruitment, best training tips, induction, compensation and a whole lot else! This really is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to hear these acclaimed management speakers. Read the overview of the programme here for further details and speaker profiles.
And building on last year’s winning formula, Anne-Marie Svendsen-Aylott from Purple Cat Coaching will run a 2 day course ‘Impact on People’ taking in team development and leadership. Like last year, these interactive, impactful lectures knit together to form a 2 day course, but as each lecture covers a specific aspect, you can dip in and out if you wish to. Read the overview of the programme here for further details and speaker profile.
Want to learn more about internet marketing techniques? We have a full day stream on ‘Modern Marketing’ led by internet media experts covering the basics of website content and functionality right through to internet advertising and search engine optimisation. Read more here on the Modern Marketing stream.
Want to maximise your pet product sales? On Saturday, we switch the focus to retailing. Find out from the experts how to step up and grab a slice of the pet retail market. This nuts and bolts series of lectures will give you the inside story from product selection, pricing, merchandising through to recommendations and making a sale. Read more here.
And that’s not all! Find information on additional seminars, the social programme, sponsors and exhibitors and hotel details on the congress website www.vpmacongress.co.uk.
