Prices for SQP Training

At Vetpol we seek to deliver value for money, always.

That’s why we don’t offer discounts and flashy deals: Whether you buy one course or fifty, the price remains the same.

The margin that we could give away on bulk purchasing and offers is reinvested into delivering an ever-better level of service for our students and fee-paying employers. This means that value for money is always top of our agenda as we remain transparent about fees and clear about what you get in return for your investment.

Here are our fees:

A one-species SQP qualification with Vetpol costs £760+VAT and includes access to first class online training materials, online exams, student support and registration costs during the year in which you qualify. Once qualified you receive a certificate from our Awarding Body, LANTRA, an enamel badge denoting your professional status and access to Vetpol’s unique trademarks, designed to signpost veterinary medicines and elevate the professional recognition of SQPs.

Choose from Companion Animal, Farm, Equine or Avian
You may add additional species at the time of your initial purchase for a cost of just £95+VAT per species.

If you wish to purchase additional species AFTER your qualification, you may do so for a fee of £169+VAT. The difference in costs is a reflection of our additional costs when purchasing later (including an extra exam fee).
We recognise your AMTRA qualification via the process of Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL) so you may add any extra species for £250+VAT. Please contact us for more details.
Whether you have had a career break and lapsed in your SQP registration or you have not achieved the required amount of CPD, you may have to go through our re-validation process to be added to the Vetpol SQP Register – fee of £190+VAT.
The cost of an exam re-sit is £150+VAT per exam.
The SQP registration year starts on January 1st and runs for a calendar year.

When payment is made online before the end of the previous year (eg, payment of 2025 registration fee before 31st December 2024), the annual fee for the Vetpol Register is £65+VAT.

Anyone paying by invoice for more than 3 SQPs will also pay £65+VAT providing that payment is made before the end of the previous year.

If paying by invoice for 3 SQPs or less, or paying after the year end deadline, a fee of £70+VAT is payable.

At the end of March anyone who has not paid will be removed from the SQP Register and will be unable to practice. From April onwards reinstatement fees applies where appropriate.

If you switch from another Register to the Vetpol Register there is no fee for the remainder of the year in which the switch is made.
Vetpol also offers an online Veterinary Pharmacy Manager course that counts as 15 hours worth of CPD and meets certain criteria of the Practice Standards Scheme (PSS). The fee for online course materials, a multiple choice exam and certificate is £490+VAT
