reptile/herpetology studies

[sami]

the one on Herpetology looks really good...

it's a lot more in depth than the proteus one, and the company look a lot more professional tbh.

someone i know got fed up of waiting for proteus, and went to compass, and had everything within a week!

yeah my girlfriend is doing canine studies with them and they seem brill.....very flexible,because she is taking ages on her third module because of not enough spare time and they are still giving her constant support

p.s..if anyone else who reads this thread has done a rep/herp course with compass id like to know what it was like

[missbehavin]

whats the addy for compass

[jonosd]

i have not looked at the proteus course but the compass one on herpetology looks pretty basic imo. its a shame it is only available at study level 2 unless im reading it wrong. something at level 4 i think would be well worth doing. shame you cant do boid specific courses lol

VetClick - Internet Services For Busy Veterinary Professionals. Jobs, staff, supplies, consumables, referral practices, buying agency, discussion forums, websites and lots more... seems to offer some good courses.

and i've had nothing but waiting for proteus

i'd do the compass ones, they look really good.
the proteus one is just a basic one on looking after them. Compass actually looks like a Herpetology course.. not basic looking after my first snake kinda course like the other...

Compass Education and Training

and here's a link

I had a quick look at the link and this was what I found:

Module1: Amphibians
This introduction to the course looks at birds in general, how they are officially classified and what there origins are, also the characteristics that all birds share in one form or another. The following modules discuss and investigate the rather more specialised characteristics of different groups of birds as each of the module titles suggest.


Made me LOL - I think they need to look at their website.

I do believe Exotic Animal Welfare trust run a weekend course covering quite a bit

Exotic Animal Welfare Trust [EAWT] - "Home"

I can recommend the Exotic Animal Care College for specific reptile courses. The courses are run via distance learning and their prices aren't bad either.

Two courses only though, one on corn snakes and one on royal pythons, both at £75
