This is a three day, complete equine reproduction short course with lectures by Jos Mottershead of Equine-Reproduction.com.
The artificial insemination sections of this course are approved by DEFRA after consultation with the RCVS to enable delegates to become officially recognised AI technicians. Click here to see more information from DEFRA about AI Technicians' training courses.
The course will be taught by one of America's top equine reproduction experts, and will, without doubt be the most comprehensive stud course available in the UK. Each day we will cover a different area, the mare, the pregnant mare and foal, and the stallion. The course will include practical sessions, Q&A's, and a huge amount of practical and money saving advice. Every delegate receives detailed course notes, which are a fantastic resource!
Teaching and practical work will be supported by Jamie Anderson BA Physiol (Oxon), James Crawford BVSc MRCVS, and Lotta Sortoft (stud manager, Home Farm Stud).

Some comments about the course:
"Wow! That was the best weekend seminar I have ever attended. Now I know what to ask my vet, and I even learned how to do many things myself! I figure I will save the cost of the class in vet bills in about a week! I highly recommend this class to anyone who is breeding horses!" Kris Garrett, Grand Prix Andalusians
"An excellent course for both breeders and vets! I was very impressed with the information provided and as a veterinarian was pleased to have learned so much. The lecturers had an answer for every question I asked. Well done!" Ken Valencich, D.V.M.
"As a true "lay person" in the field of equine reproduction, I was hesitant to spend the time and money. I am so glad that I made the right decision! The lecturers somehow manage to keep everyone involved and are able to make some complicated issues very clear and understandable...... The Course 'Notes' needs to be published! They are as complete and concise as the seminar, and I know I will be referring to it all year." B. Buerkle
