There are two main ways that students can help us currently. We want WikiVet to be used as widely as possible throughout the world so as many students as possible can have access to this great content. To do this we need to let students know that WikiVet is here, so we're on the look out for student ambassadors. These ambassadors would act as a point of contact for the WikiVet team in their school, and help us keep the student body informed and motivated. You can find out more information at the [[WikiVet Student Ambassadors|WikiVet<sup><small>TM</small></sup> Student Ambassadors]] page.

We're also looking to create school pages about your school. This will let students and graduates around the world find out more about your school, what the teaching is like and found out who they should contact. If you'd like to help us create a page about your school (after all, who knows it better than you?) then have a look at the help page. If you want to see which schools already have pages and ambassadors, take a look at the [[Vet Schools Worldwide|vet schools world map]].

The WikiVet site has grown enormously and now has over 5,000 pages of content and 27,000 veterinary registered users. It provides an expanding veterinary encyclopaedia with related learning materials. You can choose to learn and revise by topic, system or species using a range of resources such as flashcards, quizzes and drag and drop exercises. We would strongly recommend that you register now and start learning how to access content relevant to the course.
