Back to all CPD
Stallion A.I.,Whitchurch,SY13 4BP
The aim of the course is to ensure that delegates facing a stud season are fully conversant with the essential theory and practical techniques of equine artificial insemination.
Lectures will include health requirements and paperwork for both mare and stallion; semen collection, handling, processing and shipping, assessment of the mare prior to insemination; timing of insemination for fresh, chilled and frozen semen; techniques of equine insemination and assessment of the mare after insemination.
Small group practical sessions will include microscopic assessments of chilled and frozen equine semen, handling of frozen semen and insemination of mares using conventional and deep intra-uterine techniques.
Being an older geezer, I am dubious about a lot of the courses which call themselves CPD and see them more as a money extraction device by folks trying to peddle their wares to a captive market. I must say though, that despite the long drive, I stayed until the end of this course because of the sincerity of all the speakers and the practical manner in which things were presented. I would like to thank all those involved. I did want to have a chat with James and Jonathan both of whom I hold in high regards and have not seen in years, but they was always somebody having a chat with them! That is always a good reflection on a speaker.
