A world level veterinary training network

• Unprecedent need of high level training for personnel dealing with food surveillance and control

• Technical competence + organisation, management, leadership = essential to guarantee appropriate performances and consistent behaviours

• “there are no prospects for a profession that cannot adapt itself to an everchanging world”

A world level veterinary training network

• Managerial and technical training essential for:

–Being up to speed with the news–Guarantee consistent operative levels in veterinary public health–Harmonisation of the interpretation of international norms on animal health and hygiene of animal products

Our solutions

• eLearning• Collaborative communities• Portals for knowledge and skill

dissemination

OIE Collaborating Centre for Veterinary Training ……

• to operate as a centre of research, expertise, standardisation and dissemination of techniques;

• to propose or develop any procedure which will facilitate harmonisation of international regulations applicable to the surveillance and control of animal diseases;

• to provide scientific and technical training to personnel from Member Countries of the Office;

• coordinate scientific and technical studies in collaboration with other laboratories or organisations;

• to publish and disseminate any information which may be useful to Member Countries of the Office.

Two big projects

• OIE portal for veterinary epidemiology and risk management

• OIE portal for animal welfare

• To make visible and accessible regional existing skills in the field of research, trough a web database

• To stimulate synergies through information sharing

• To encourage interaction and integration, through an archive system accessible per skills/competences
