Continuing Professional Development

SAENA aims to have its members excel in their profession and maintain a professional, ethical and up-to-date standard within the natural animal therapies industry. 

To follow our commitment of promoting the benefits of Natural Medicine for dogs, cats and horses; and to work in conjunction with the veterinary industry, SAENA requires members to ensure they keep their skills and knowledge current by undertaking Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

CPD is important in a professional body because it:  

  1. ensures members continually build the knowledge and skills needed to keep up to date with the industry 
  1. assists in achieving development and career goals   
  1. assists members to excel, providing increased value to their clients   
  1. helps to build members’ reputations 
  1. Allows SAENA to ensure its members are upholding to the above  

There are many ways for members to undertake Continuing Professional Development throughout the year including self-study, webinars and courses. CPD methods can include: 

  • Book or Article Reviews 
  • CPD Courses
  • Seminars and Presentations 
  • Conferences 
  • Business Courses and Webinars 
  • SAENA Webinar Series
