Module Descriptors (Syllabus)

Introduction

The AMTRA suite of modules has been developed to provide a means of accrediting learning undertaken as part of a professional requirement. The modules are divided into two groups:

• Veterinary Nurses
• Modular approach for other SQPs

Veterinary Nurses

Veterinary nurses have already gained much of the knowledge and understanding required to operate as an SQP. The modules "AMTRA Veterinary Nurses: Base" and "AMTRA Veterinary Nurses: Conversion" have taken these differences into account within their outcomes and their indicative content.

New SQP modular approach

There are four certificate level modules in this group:

• AMTRA SQP BASE (10 credits)
• AMTRA SQP EQUINE (5 credits)
• AMTRA SQP COMPANION ANIMAL (5 credits)
• AMTRA SQP FARM ANIMAL (15 credits)

These modules can be combined in any way you wish:
