The itchy dog. The stinky ear.
The bald cat. Run them all on 2026 evidence.

The interactive small-animal dermatology academy for vets and vet nurses: name every lesion from the photo, read cytology in one fixed order, treat skin infection topically first on the 2025 ISCAID guidelines, cure ringworm on a documented culture endpoint, and sequence fast itch relief with a lifelong plan — with a dated, sourced number table behind every threshold the course teaches and a verify-against-a-current-formulary stamp on every drug value.

The real problem

Most dermatology misses are not knowledge failures.

A webinar is not a microscope

Recorded lectures can describe Malassezia yeast. They cannot drill the tape-strip technique, the 10× scan and the per-field count until they run themselves at the bench.

Generic courses carry stale drug data

Apoquel Chewable (2023), Zenrelia (2024) and the 2025 ISCAID pyoderma guidelines moved the evidence floor. A course still opening with an oral antibiotic for superficial folliculitis is out of date on its most-taught topic.

The numbers change the plan

An elimination diet run at least 8 weeks detects more than 90% of food-reactive dogs and cats; a 3-week trial with treats detects almost nothing. The right number at the right step is the diagnosis.

Six original GlobalVet frameworks

Systems you can run in the consult room.

Every lesson, case and tool uses the same six thinking tools, so they become automatic.

Pruritus

The I.T.C.H. Map

Identify the itch · Test the minimum database · Challenge with the two big trials · Hand off a written lifelong plan. The one-page pruritus work-up that survives the consult.

Cytology

The S.L.I.D.E. Cytology Method

Stain · Locate · Identify · Density-count · Explain. One microscope reading order that builds speed and catches the misses.

Otitis

The E.A.R.-8 Otitis Loop

Examine · Act · Recheck in 7–14 days — with an 8-week stop rule that sends two-time failures to imaging or surgery instead of a third bottle of drops.

Diet trials

The F.O.O.D. Calendar

Feed only one diet · Observe 8 weeks · Owner diary · Decide with provocation. Elimination diet trials that finish and count.

Stewardship

The S.T.A.P.H. Stewardship Ladder

Surface first · Test by cytology · Antiseptics preferred · Path for resistance · Help from culture. The 2025 guidelines as a daily decision ladder.

Ringworm

The C.U.R.E.-2 Protocol

Culture-driven · Unified coat + environment · Recheck weekly · End at the culture endpoint. A ringworm cure you can document, not eyeball.

Curriculum

8 modules. One path from the first consult to the written lifelong plan.

Branching cases

Practice the hard case before it walks in.

Each branching case is a consult-room conversation: you choose what to recommend and how to explain it to the owner, and the owner answers. Scores: best move +2, acceptable +1, poor 0, harmful −2. The first case is free.

Final exam & certificate

Proof of learning.

30 questions drawn from every module, 80 % to pass. Pass and you can download a verifiable certificate of completion with your study hours for your professional-development records — a certificate of completion, not accredited CE.

What the exam tests
  • Image reads: lesion patterns, cytology fields and otoscopic views
  • Clinical decisions: drug choice, course length, referral, diet design
  • Numbers with sources: doses, durations and diagnostic thresholds
  • Outdated advice: spotting the pre-2025 recommendation in a list

FAQ

Before you enroll.

Who is this for?

Veterinarians in small-animal practice first, with an in-course nurse and technician track (sample collection, recheck scoring, ear-cleaning and diet-trial coaching). There is no separate product and no extra charge.

How current is the drug content?

It reflects approvals and label changes through 2026 — Apoquel Chewable 2023, Zenrelia 2024, the 2025 ISCAID pyoderma guidance and the isoxazoline menu with label intervals. Every number shows its source and year and a verify-against-a-current-formulary stamp, because labels change — ours were checked in October 2026.

Will the numbers work in my country?

Drug labels differ by country (US, EU, UK), so every drug lesson carries a region note. In Hong Kong and Macau, check local availability and labeling before prescribing. Doses are educational reference values to verify against a current formulary and your practice protocols.

Are there videos of the procedures?

Version 1 ships real licensed photos and step-by-step photo sequences — tape strips, scrapings, ear cytology, ear flushing, otoscopy and Wood's lamp — never AI video. Short filmed procedure clips may be added later as optional slots.

Is there a certificate?

Yes — a certificate of completion after passing a 30-item case-based exam at 80 %. No CE or accreditation is claimed.
