Opportunities in EMS: Giving and receiving skills for life
The VCF Paul Manning Memorial EMS fund aims to assist all VCF members in developing their practical skills, support EMS, and gain workplace experience. EMS can help to reinforce and underpin academic learning, and also develop a sense of purpose for it. The fund is part of wider support that includes a database of VCF members who are willing to take students on EMS. There are also members who can provide mentoring and pastoral care. For more information email admin@vcf.org.uk.
VCF’s sister organisation in the USA, the Christian Veterinary Mission (CVM), organises regular trips for its members worldwide. (www.cvmusa.org)
What sort of things does The Paul Manning Memorial EMS Fund sponsor?
- Travel and expenses grants to facilitate and support students wanting to travel to do specific EMS in the UK and abroad.
- Grants to facilitate and support seeing practice for recent graduates or members re-entering the veterinary profession.
- Individuals visiting VCF Missionaries or members abroad for EMS or CVM Courses.
- Research or education applying faith in the workplace
It does not Sponsor
- VCF does not sponsor veterinary tuition fees or CPD fees.
- It is unlikely that VCF will agree to retrospective payments for events that have already occurred so authorisation needs to be obtained before the event.
- Although it is unlikely that VCF sponsorship will exceed £300 per application, if you have ideas requiring more funding then please feel free to discuss them with a committee member.
