Training in pet nutrition and pet food production, whatever your level of interest
UK Pet Food design training courses for a broad range of pet professionals, from university students considering a career in the pet food industry, to pet food manufacturers, retailers and veterinary professionals.
'Pet food & nutrition' webinar course
Our regular 'Pet food & nutrition' course has received great feedback from attendees since its original launch as a residential programme in 2019. Following a successful trial during Covid, the course is now provided online through a flexible series of webinars and provides an all-round introduction to nutrition, pet food production and marketing regulations.
Ideal for busy professionals, with three half-day virtual sessions per week for two weeks, attendees can sign up for specific sessions only, or attend the entire two-week programme:
Week 1: Animal Nutrition
- Pet Nutrition (including dog nutrition, cat nutrition, small mammal nutrition, bird nutrition and fish nutrition)
