Training for people working with animals

For those involved in animal-related work under the Animals (Scientific Procedures Act) 1986, it's crucial to be well-educated and skilled before conducting any procedures. The type of training you'll need depends on your specific role, as outlined by the Home Office's minimum training criteria. For more detailed information on these training standards, consult the Guidance on the Operation of the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act 1986, accessible through the Home Office's official website. At Red Kite Veterinary Consultants, we provide comprehensive training programs for all individuals applying for licences and those in designated roles.
