Wildlife Vet Online FAQ

  • Do I need to sign up for Level 1 before Level 2, 3 or 4?

    Level 1, 2, 3 and 4 are designed to fit different budgets and are not needed to be taken in order. Level 1 is the lowest price package and includes the basics. Level 2 includes everything from Level 1 plus video lessons and transcripts. Level 3 includes everything from Level 1 and 2 plus case studies, ecology and e-books. Level 4 includes everything from Levels 1-3 plus 3 hours 1-on-1 time with Dr Rogers and fully on-demand lessons.

  • Will all information, lessons and resources be released at once and are they available on-demand?
