Access CPD have created a unique and effective way to teach vets and veterinary nurses how to become calmer and more confident in practice.
Veterinary practice has its highs and lows. Over time the lows can bring us down, causing our confidence to ebb away. Career breaks, clinical or surgical mistakes, client complaints, and poor support can all exacerbate the problem.
At Access CPD we recognise that knowledge alone is often not enough. Being a great vet, nurse or clinical student takes confidence too.
The confidence to make decisions. The confidence to engage with clients. The confidence to perform medical procedures and surgery, and the confidence to work within a team are all vital components of a fulfilling and successful career in practice.
Through our online veterinary CPD courses, we will show you how to increase your general veterinary confidence, surgical confidence, confidence on returning to work, or get the best start to your career as a recent graduate.
We pride ourselves on quality. We aim to produce the highest quality, highest value online veterinary CPD courses for vets, nurses and clinical veterinary students.
To ensure the highest quality we focus on one thing. Confidence.
All of our CPD courses are designed specifically for vets, vet nurses and veterinary students struggling with confidence who long to feel more comfortable in their veterinary 'shoes'.

This was such a great course! and I love how it was tied into veterinary medicine directly.
The course was fantastic. The reason this works for me is that it explains WHY we feel the way we do!
I've loved doing the course slowly over many months as suited me at this stage of my life on maternity leave :)
I seriously thought it was just me. That my negative feelings around surgery made me a BAD surgeon. In reality I was doing fine. I just couldn't see it and was making things worse for myself.
The coaching has really changed the way I think and feel. Thanks!

Before I worked with Louise I dreaded my surgery days. Now I still feel those butterflies but I see them for what they are. A signal it's time to go to work! I'm getting more comfortable every day. Thank you!
For me, Louise is the calm in the storm. She has an indefatigable ability to give me perspective, to help me order my spinning brain and to reassure me that I’m not alone and that actually there is a way to re-educate yourself to improve your confidence"
Would you recommend this course to a friend?
Absolutely, my non-vet husband should do it!
My surgical anxiety isn't cured but it gets better each day. I no longer ruminate on potential outcomes and can discharge patients without the 'what if' feelings that used to plague my evenings.
Thank you for the course. The techniques have helped with many things in life not just surgical confidence. I feel like I've got tools and know how to process difficult emotions rather than shy away from them and ideas of ways to help myself move forward and be a less stressed, more confident person.
