Veterinary Council of New Zealand (VCNZ) - Top of the Class Training for New Zealand’s Veterinarians

 The Veterinary Council of New Zealand (VCNZ) is the statutory regulator of the veterinary profession responsible for upholding standards that protect the veterinary practice. It registers veterinarians, issues annual practising certificates, sets standards for education and conduct, manages complaints and disciplinary processes, and advises government on veterinary and educational matters. VCNZ delivers targeted biosecurity training at the request of government, an uncommon role for a regulator.

THE PROBLEM

 VCNZ faced a challenge delivering and tracking professional education for veterinarians. Under a national biosecurity preparedness initiative, it was tasked to train and accredit 200 veterinarians, with plans to expand the program to all practising vets. 

 However, VCNZ had no system to deliver or track training, record completions, or maintain an accurate register of authorised veterinarians. To meet its regulatory obligations, VCNZ needed a secure, integrated solution to manage training delivery and oversight. 

THE IMPACT

Optimized Training Accessibility and Scalability
100+ Hours of Administrative Work Saved
Reliable Low-Maintenance Technology

RESULTS

VCNZ implemented TopClass to deliver and manage its national biosecurity training programme. The platform provides a central system to deliver training, track completion and maintain accurate records, accessible through the Council’s existing portal. It enables VCNZ to identify authorised participants and manage training and records efficiently, with staff able to administer the system without prior LMS experience.

"The beauty of TopClass is that veterinarians can log in, complete the training, and we can keep accurate records of who’s done what. It just works."
