The College Of Animal Welfare - Head Nurse Congress Returns - May 2026!
The College of Animal Welfare (CAW) is delighted to announce that registrations are now open for Head Nurse Congress held on Thursday 14 May 2026.
Head Nurse Congress is an event solely focused on head veterinary nurses and practice managers - exploring all aspects of the roles; from the many different responsibilities to the challenges that are faced on a daily basis. This congress offers 7 hours of evidenced CPD and this year we are welcoming a range of expert industry speakers to deliver lectures. Our live Q&A sessions give you the opportunity to pose questions to be answered by the speakers themselves.
Delegates will explore Building your practice vision and empowering your team, gain insight through Managing Menopause Within Practice, and develop leadership skills in Strategise for Success in Veterinary Practice with the CAW Business School. The programme also includes confidence‑building sessions such as Resolving Tensions with Confidence and Imposter Syndrome: Managing Fears of Inadequacy & Self‑doubt, ensuring a rich and empowering day of professional development.
Claire Gregory, CPD and Events Manager at The College of Animal Welfare, commented: “This year’s Head Nurse Congress features a dynamic line‑up of thought‑provoking lectures tailored to the challenges and ambitions of today’s senior veterinary nurses”
Head Nurse Congress will be held online via Zoom, allowing participants to join from the comfort of their homes or workplaces. Attendees will have the opportunity to listen to expert presentations, participate in interactive Q&A sessions, network with delegates and exhibitors, and access on-demand recordings of the talks for later review.
Registration is now open, with early-bird discounts available until Friday, 20 March 2026. For more information and to register, visit Eventbrite Booking: Head Nurse Congress 2026
