The development of the Veterinarium Clinic
06 October 2025
For the Agricultural University of Georgia, the development of the Veterinarium Clinic is one of the top priorities. A key component of the clinic’s progress is the high-quality professional training of its staff.
That is why, with the support of the Kakha Bendukidze Knowledge Fund and the Agricultural University of Georgia, over the past year and a half Veterinarium’s staff have undergone advanced training in a variety of fields, including cardiology, oncology, ultrasound, cardiac screening, and orthopedic surgery.
These training programs took place in:
- United States
- Luxembourg
- Spain
- Portugal
- Estonia
- Bulgaria
The professional development programs are carefully selected for their quality and international recognition, and include courses from both the European School for Advanced Veterinary Studies (ESAVS) and Movora Education.
The ESAVS certified and master programs are based on the latest teaching materials in veterinary clinical disciplines (https://esavs.org/). Training combines intensive theoretical and practical sessions, examinations, and problem-based learning approaches. The programs are delivered in collaboration with leading universities and clinics across approximately 20 European countries.
Movora Education is an international platform for veterinary orthopedic education, offering online courses, hands-on workshops, and mentorship programs (education.movora.com). The courses are designed by some of the world’s leading surgeons and bioengineers.
A particularly important milestone is that, under the memorandum signed between the Agricultural University of Georgia and the Estonian University of Life Sciences, one or two Veterinarium staff members are given the opportunity each year to attend a 7-week intensive Practical Training in Small Animal Medicine. This training takes place in Tartu, at the university’s veterinary clinic, where experienced clinicians mentor students, share knowledge, and support the development of practical skills.
During the 7-week program, all travel and living expenses of Veterinarium staff are fully covered by the Kakha Bendukidze Knowledge Fund and the newly established Veterinarium Fund.
The Veterinarium Fund was created on the initiative of the clinic’s head veterinarians, Ana Kumsishvili and Lasha-Giorgi Japaridze, together with the Vice-Rector of the Agricultural and Free Universities, Natia Samushia. Each month, a portion of the clinic’s revenue is allocated to the Fund to support the professional growth and continuous education of its staff.
