Full support of this petition, Hands on experience is imperative to future success
 

This petition will allow veterinary students prior to 4th year to practice and develop their skills under the supervision of veterinarians, so that when they are required to perform procedures they will be amply prepared. I think it is a great solution for veterinary students. It will give students the right to practice and build their confidence. Also, it will allow them to better grasp the concepts and apply their didactic knowledge to its practical application in a safe environment. It will allow students to be proactive with their education, by allowing them to find veterinarians to teach them in a more in depth way. I fully support this petition.
