  • An interns perspective
    Nov 13 2025

    Welcome back to "The perception and influence of RVN teaching in the veterinary profession". In this episode, we're excited to introduce a lively discussion featuring four interns from Nottingham Vet School as they share their experiences being taught by Registered Veterinary Nurses (RVNs).

    Many of them were surprised to learn that RVNs aren’t commonly found in the role of teaching undergraduate vets. Together, they’ll reflect on the skills and expertise that make RVNs exceptional educators.

    We’ll dive into how RVNs were present during their veterinary degree, how we assist and guide undergraduates during placements, and how RVN support extends well into post-graduation.

    So, settle in and enjoy this insightful conversation about the vital role RVNs play in veterinary education!

    The veterinary nurses at the University of Nottingham would like to welcome you to series 2. We aimed to encourage all veterinary nurses that teaching undergraduate veterinary students could be a career pathway.

    Whilst series 1, shared each of our journeys in higher education, series 2 broadcasts what we do within the university. This series is more relaxed and filled with interesting questions about what our responsibilities are and the positives and challenges we face.
