New nutrition CPD launched for SQPs and equine feed retailers

The SPILLERS brand has launched a nutrition training hub for retailers, to support them with practical, evidence-based equine nutrition knowledge.

Five structured learning modules take retailers on a journey of equine nutrition know-how and at the end they can take a quiz to test their knowledge and ultimately earn a Certificate of Completion.

AMTRA SQPs can obtain 12 CPD points by completing all six of the clinical conditions modules.

“Our new nutrition training modules are designed to help retailers become better equipped to support their customers with confidence and expertise,” said Vanessa Allen, nutrition montent manager at Mars Horsecare.

“Whether a feed advisor working in a feed store, an equine studies student, or someone who simply passionate about improving their equine nutrition knowledge our training hub is for them, and it’s free to use.”

Each module delivers clear, practical information for day-to-day application and sharing with customers:

Module 1: Market Information
