Offering thoughtful benefits that directly address your employee’s needs will offer them support, which will make it more likely for them to stay with your practice long-term.   There are plenty of benefits to consider, but **training and education is an excellent place to start.** Best practices are constantly evolving and your team wants to be able to stay at the forefront of patient care. But everyone learns differently, so it’s worthwhile to research what training opportunities make the most sense for your team. Do you have a bunch of readers on your crew? How about visual learners? Are they *really* excited for that next conference where they can go to lectures with their friends and coworkers? Or do they need quiet focus time to really make sure they’re absorbing information? There are lots of ways to fill these needs:  - **Mentorships** can make an incredible difference in supporting your team, especially for those new to the field. Knowing that there’s at least one person to turn to when you’re uncertain can significantly impact the confidence of someone just entering the veterinary field. These can be difficult to formalize, but creating that structure is meaningful for your team.  - **Conferences** offer live CE opportunities which are always crucial for your doctors and licensed technicians! The travel associated can be expensive, but the educational benefits reaped by your team are significant and can make big positive changes in your practice.  - **In-house workshops** can be hard to find depending on where you’re located, but these are a great option if they’re accessible to you. Workshops are certainly cost-saving if you’re not paying travel expenses, and your team has the benefit of learning in an environment that’s familiar to them.  - **Online learning** has blossomed significantly, especially in the past few years. Now there are more options than ever, with materials for every member of your team (not just the licensed ones).   On atDove, we strive to offer something for everybody and we’re always growing. Our website hosts hundreds of articles, videos, lectures, and quizzes for every person in the practice – regardless of their position or how long they’ve been in the field. While we always encourage maximizing and diversifying the educational offerings for your team, we know that budgets are limited, and you may have to make a choice in education and training providers. Our goal is to offer high-quality training that’s easily digestible, easily accessible, and cost-effective. Our annual subscriptions start at $465 which grants access to our entire content library, including 120+ hours of RACE-approved CE for doctors and technicians. We also have a growing library of customer support and communication lectures, as well as materials to support well-being in your veterinary practice.   ###### **Want to learn more?** You can [reach out to us](https://meetings.hubspot.com/kaitlyn-sanborn/customer-service-form) at any time with more questions, or you can start a free trial and see how [atDove](https://www.atdove.org/join) can work for you and your team.     ![Kaitlyn Sanborn](https://blog.atdove.org/hs-fs/hubfs/Headshots/Headshot_Kaitlyn%20Sanborn_2.jpg?width=150&name=Headshot_Kaitlyn%20Sanborn_2.jpg) #### Kaitlyn Sanborn atDove Account Executive ### Leave a Comment ## Related Articles [![veterinarian in hospital](https://blog.atdove.org/hubfs/DVM_Photos-10.jpg)](https://blog.atdove.org/focus-on-wellbeing) [Veterinary Professional Development](https://blog.atdove.org/tag/veterinary-professional-development) ### [Focusing on Your Well-being](https://blog.atdove.org/focus-on-wellbeing) We may be beginning to feel like we have more questions than answers.
