Digital Learning for Veterinarians
Aim
- To discuss how equipping veterinarians with digital skills, enhancing the learning via digital and remote peers-to-peers modalities and increasing the access to digital learning tools represent an opportunity to develop capacity in the animal health sector for FAST disease control.
Main issues
- Is access to digital learning tools creating barriers? Can we support those who do not have access to digital resources? How do we ensure that digitalization of learning does not increase the gap between learners from different settings?
- What are the digital skills needed to facilitate an effective and prompt response to animal health emergencies? How the growth on demand for new digital skills is envisaged in the near future and how can it be addressed?
- How can social learning improve veterinary capacity development?
- Are veterinarians equipped with the right digital tools that can enhance their work? Are animal health workers provided with the right digital skills to meet Continuous Professional Development and to meet the evidence of capacity development needed by countries?
