Veterinary Specialist Recognition
To be a specialist in Denmark, veterinarians have to have additional education and evaluation.
- The title of specialist is official and authorised.
- Most veterinary specialists have a PhD and then apply for the specialist title nationally.
- An EBVS College residency programme and qualification is considered to be an equivalent level as a PhD (i.e. EQF level 8) for many disciplines.
- Diplomates of both provisionally- and fully-recognised EBVS colleges can be granted recognition in Denmark.
- The Ministry does not maintain an official list of specialists and thus the public has no access to a registry.
Advanced Veterinary Practitioners
- The national “specialist” level is equivalent to at least EQF level 7.
