Webinars
The CCAC is offering web-based seminars, or webinars, in order to educate, train, and communicate with ACC members, scientists and other CCAC constituents across the country and around the world.
One of the great benefits of webinars is that travel is not required for the attendees; they can all access them from the comfort of their office. Additional benefits and advantages of CCAC webinars include expert insights and coverage of hot topics and emerging issues.
Consult our list below and access all CCAC recorded webinars.
This webinar focuses on establishing a good balance in animal care and use programs between safeguards and services. Institutions and their very busy animal users, animal care committees and animal care staff and veterinarians all have to juggle with having good safeguards in place for animals while maintaining good services to animal users, avoiding irritants and minimizing burden for all involved. The CCAC also works to maximize animal welfare and minimize irritants. This webinar is therefore meant to provide ideas on how each category of persons can contribute to a good balance of safeguards and services, starting with what the CCAC does and moving on to what ACCs, animal users and veterinarians and animal care staff can do.
