We provide resources for all stakeholders in laboratory animal science education, particularly course organizers and educators, learners, accrediting bodies, and Competent Authorities.
Course organizers can find e-learning modules to integrate in their teaching, feature their course in our searchable European course directory, and find extensive information on LAS E&T, including on assessment of both theoretical knowledge and practical skills. ETPLAS also provides an exam platform [coming soon] to course organizers to test knowledge on functions (a) and (b) of the E&T Framework.
Learners can use our e-learning modules (new ones available for testing) for their continuing professional development, and refresh their knowledge on several key aspects of laboratory animal science. Dedicated courses for Designated Veterinarians, Competence Assessors and Inspectors are also available for testing.
Course Accreditors can find guidance on mutual recognition and harmonization of courses, as well as assessable learning outcomes for core modules and function (a), as well as function (b).
