Wildlife Vet Online FAQ

Do I need to sign up for Level 1 before Level 2, 3 or 4?

Level 1, 2, 3 and 4 are designed to fit different budgets and are not needed to be taken in order. Level 1 is the lowest price package and includes the basics. Level 2 includes everything from Level 1 plus video lessons and transcripts. Level 3 includes everything from Level 1 and 2 plus case studies, ecology and e-books. Level 4 includes everything from Levels 1-3 plus 3 hours 1-on-1 time with Dr Rogers and fully on-demand lessons.
Will all information, lessons and resources be released at once and are they available on-demand?

Level 1, 2 and 3 are all drip fed courses. This means lessons and content are released monthly. You will not have access to everything from day 1. If you would like everything available from day 1 and on-demand then please purchase Level 4 or our individual wildlife courses in the African Wildlife category.
How long will I have access to Wildlife Vet Online?

Level 1, 2, 3 and 4 are available on your account for 365 days regardless of whether you buy the monthly or annual price option.
Do I have to be a qualified vet to attend the Wildlife Vet Online course?

All Wildlife Vet Online course levels are primarily designed for vet medicine and vet nurse students, however they have become equally useful for vet professionals and wildlife conservation professionals. Similarly, bioscience students (such as zoology, ecology, marine science etc) have made use of the courses with great success. You do not have to be a qualified vet or conservation professional to find the courses useful. The different levels are designed for different budget levels - the more expensive the more information and lessons you’ll get. Finally, you do not have to do levels 1 to 3 before level 4.
If I am thinking about studying veterinary medicine, is Wildlife Vet Online a good course to learn about the industry?

Wildlife Vet Online is specific to wildlife veterinary medicine and wildlife conservation in South Africa. If those topics interest you then this course would be a terrific addition to your learning and development.
