Wellbeing Compass Course

Welcome!

Join us on a journey towards increased wellbeing for veterinary professionals. The Wellbeing Compass Course will serve as a resource that you can access at any time to prepare for the next voyage in your career and to help you navigate through the high tides and rough waters of veterinary medicine. While on your journey through the Wellbeing Compass Course, you will embark on lessons of overcoming impostor syndrome, managing difficult cases with ease, overcoming communication challenges, avoiding burnout, and much more!

You can go through these asynchronous modules on your own time, at your own pace, when works for you. Welcome aboard; we’re glad you’re here! 

Below are some resources that you can reference either in preparation for your journey and/or whenever you may need a buoy to help you afloat:
