““The content of the talks was extremely thorough and of great quality, going from theoretical to practical details and experiences. The speakers were friendly and funny making the learning experience an enjoyable moment! It was definitely an advanced course where I learned a lot and which will serve me for the foal season coming working in a hospital environment.””
