Veterinary Higher Learning Center
It all started when…
The Veterinary Higher Learning Center (VHLC) was born from years of watching students, interns, residents and practicing veterinarians struggle with veterinary neurology. Too often it was said “I didn’t have a neurologist in my vet school”. WHY? Because there aren’t enough neurologists in teaching institutions anymore! In the 21st Century there are more neurologists in private practice than in teaching institutions. This means students don’t have access to the people passionate about, and with the greatest understanding of neurology. TheVeterinary Higher Learning Center was created to provide access to high quality lectures, taught by state-of-the-art teachers passionate about their subject.
