The Western Cape Region, the College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences (CAES) and staff from the Department of Corporate Communication and Marketing (CC&M) participated in the 2012 South African Equine Veterinary Association (SAEVA) congress which was hosted in the Southern Cape in February this year.
SAEVA is a group dedicated to improving the health and welfare of the equine through the professional development of its members by providing leadership and resources in matters pertaining to the equine industry. The congress was attended by 115 national and international veterinarians, with companies and institutions exhibiting their products and services to the congress attendees.
This gave CC&M the platform to position Unisa as an ODL institution of choice. The Western Cape Region and CAES also had the opportunity to exhibit the Animal Health Programme, as it is one of the main focus areas of the college. Delegates showed interest in both under graduate and postgraduate programmes offered by CAES.
