Veterinary Academy Simulation Centre
OUR AIM is to provide conditions for ongoing learning and development of practical abilities in veterinary medicine using the methods of veterinary medicine simulations.
About Centre
The Veterinary Academy Simulation Centre offers the students the opportunity to develop practical skills in a safe, stress-free environment using artificial patients and their parts. This approach ensures that no harm is done to live animals, while enabling the students to learn at their own pace and at convenient times.
At our Simulation Centre, the students can confidently practice, make mistakes, and learn from them, which is also an essential part of the learning process. This prepares them more effectively for clinical studies, internships, and future professional work in veterinary medicine.
Additionally, the Centre hosts practical skills training and laboratory classes in clinical courses, ensuring high-quality education and alignment of the training with real-life scenarios.
