Life long learning

The Altano Academy is the international training platform of the Altano Group, dedicated to advancing high-quality veterinary care for horses through knowledge sharing, professional collaboration, and academic development.

The Academy organizes continuing education courses, modules, webinars, journal clubs, and international conferences for veterinarians and veterinary technicians both within and outside the Altano Group.

SMDC is the founder of Altano Academy and we continue to contribute to its further development, including serving as Program Directors for several Exchange Groups within the Academy:

  • Dr. Brenda Hoogelander – Program Director Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation
  • Dr. Elisabeth van Veggel – Program Director Diagnostic Imaging

Within the Altano Academy organization, Ir. Bo Staal plays an important role. She is closely involved in coordinating and organizing educational events and journal clubs.

Dynamic learning environment

Through close collaboration between clinics within the Altano Group and the involvement of leading specialists, the Altano Academy creates a dynamic learning environment where veterinarians can continuously grow, with the ultimate goal of improving veterinary care for the horse.
