RCVS publish new fitness to practise guidance for veterinary students

The Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS) has published a new guide for veterinary students which aims to introduce them to the concept of fitness to practise and to help prepare them for professional life.

The guide, entitled Fitness to Practise – A Guide for UK Veterinary Schools and Veterinary Students, was developed by a College working party in conjunction with the UK’s seven veterinary schools that currently offer an RCVS approved veterinary degree.

The RCVS are also in the process of forming a working party to produce equivalent guidance for student veterinary nurses.
