This program has helped me expand my opportunities within the intensive animal industry. I have gained in many areas including skills in feedlot medicine all within a supportive team environment. Claire 2023/2024 Feedlot Development Program Vet

The intensive animal production program within Apiam has helped me further my large animal veterinary skills and enhanced my confidence in consulting. The opportunity for travel both within Australia and overseas has broadened my outlook on production systems and allowed me to network with many great vets beyond my local practice.
