The Lattanzio KIBS team has developed three e-learning modules for WOAH to strengthen the competencies of Veterinary Services on animal welfare and aquatic animal diseases
Rising demand for specialised skills among Veterinary Services
The World Organisation for Animal Health (WOAH), the intergovernmental body responsible for animal health and welfare, has launched a reform of its training offer with a strong focus on expanding its distance learning provision.
As part of this reform, and building on a long-standing collaboration, WOAH has entrusted Lattanzio KIBS with the development of three e-learning modules designed for the Veterinary Services of its member countries. The modules are based on the Competency-based Training Framework of WOAH’s global training platform.
They aim to address the growing need for technical upskilling in two critical areas: animal welfare at the time of slaughter and prevention and control of aquatic animal diseases
Protecting animals and ecosystems through dedicated training
How can we respond to the growing demand for aquatic animal products and the need to ensure the sustainability of aquaculture?
The project includes the development of an initial e-learning module focused on animal welfare during slaughter, targeting mid-level professionals involved in official controls. The goal is to reinforce their capacity to implement the standards set out in Chapter 7.5 of the WOAH Terrestrial Animal Health Code.
The other two modules focus on surveillance, prevention, and control of aquatic animal diseases.
They are intended for professionals in Veterinary Services and Aquatic Animal Health Services, with an intermediate level of expertise. The objective is to bridge the gap between theory and practice by providing tools to effectively apply WOAH international standards in the day-to-day management of aquatic animal diseases, with a strong emphasis on safe trade and cross-border disease prevention.
