The Veterinary Human Factors Conference 2022
Thursday 24th - Friday 25th February 2022
After the huge success of the first inaugural Veterinary Human Factors Conference in February 2021, VetLed are delighted to have hosted the second The Veterinary Human Factors Conference 2022. The theme this year was:
“Veterinary Human Factors in Action: High Performing Teams”
Performance is something every veterinary team desires and strives for. Every team and individual wants to do the best for their patients, but research suggests that performance is not so simple as “know more, do better”. Join us on replay to delve into the extensive evidence base for what makes a truly High Performing Team.

Why Human Factors, now?
Veterinary Human Factors is the hottest topic in the veterinary profession currently. After a stressful 18 months of COVID, veterinary practices are looking to recover and move forward positively their teams.
Human Factors embraces everything non-clinical that supports High Performance – culture, communication, leadership, non-technical skills, continuous learning, psychological safety and much more.
This conference takes the very best of the veterinary profession, brings them together in a melting pot of other high risk, high performance individuals (from professional sport to human transplant medicine!) and asks:
"What is it that helps us perform at the very peak of our potential?"
What can you expect?
We have created a jam-packed two day schedule, featuring nearly 24 hours of cutting edge CPD with a diverse range of sessions from panels, discussions, lectures, key-note speakers, TED-style talks, abstract presentations and networking.
We recognise that it can be difficult to allow 2 full days for CPD, so we have designed our programme with this in mind. The majority of the sessions during our Pre-Conference Sessions on Thursday 24th February will be pre-recorded, allowing you to access them in bitesize chunks when it suits you best.
The Main Conference on Friday 25th February ran live, but ALL content was recorded and is available for you now! Content is available to catch up on for 6 months after conference day - so you haven't missed out on a thing!
The Pre-Conference Sessions
Research, collaboration and community are integral to furthering our understanding of Human Factors in veterinary medicine. This is why we always kick off by showcasing the very latest from those at the forefront of Veterinary Human Factors, ahead of the main conference on the Friday.
This year The Pre-Conference Sessions focused around four main areas of Veterinary Human Factors: in Research, in Practice, in Education, and at VetLed – the leaders in Veterinary Human Factors.
With discussion panels, debates, abstract presentations, lectures and “in conversation” sessions you will gain insight from key individuals and hear personal stories and experiences of implementing positive changes and working at the very cutting edge of Veterinary Human Factors.
Check out the full line-up on our programme now.
The Main Event
The Friday Main Conference Day is filled with inspirational and expert speakers and panelists who are specialists in the world of performance, both in the veterinary field and beyond. Performance is something every veterinary team desires and strives for. Every team and individual wants to do the best for their patients, but research suggests that performance is not so simple as “know more, do better”.
This conference delves into the extensive evidence base for what makes a truly High Performing Team in our in-depth 90 minute workshops and discussion panels.
