Graduate Friendly Practices
At our annual ‘Think Tank’ events for Vetsure members, we always ask what practices would like us to help them with. “More Vets!” is always the answer. That’s where the Graduate Friendly Practice Scheme comes in.

Career Focused Practices
The recruitment of quality veterinary surgeons continues to be a great challenge for our practices. Vetsure believe that the recruitment, support and development of new graduates is the only way forward, and through implementing a structured development plan, new graduates can become the future leaders that our profession desperately needs.
How it Works For Your Practice
The scheme comprises the training and templates required to create a structured support program that shows you the pathway to developing a competent, confident and profitable new graduate over the course of 12 months in practice. This program has been tried and tested in general practice over the last five years, so we are confident it will deliver impressive results. That said, it’s not a scheme that will run on autopilot, it does require effort and ongoing commitment from practices that adopt it.
Becoming Graduate Friendly
Once you have completed our training and agreed to the terms, we’ll promote your practice as ‘Graduate Friendly’ both on this site and our insurance website. Similarly, you’ll be able to use our accreditation logos on your practice site and in job ads. Throughout the year, we engage with students at vet schools to explain the benefits of working at a Vetsure Graduate Friendly Practice. We also have student ‘Vetsure Champions’ that help promote Vetsure Graduate Friendly Practices.
A Supportive Environment for All Practice Staff
Whilst aimed at vet students and new grads, practices accredited by our scheme are supportive to all vet staff including nurses, receptionists, practice managers and more experienced vets alike. We believe Vetsure Accredited Practices offer these staff members an exceptional environment to develop their skills and career, offering an attractive proposition for potential employees at a time of ongoing recruitment challenges.
