June 13-14, 2026 | Park City, UT | 2-Day Course
This workshop is designed specifically for veterinarians who have completed an introductory course in Tibial Plateau Leveling Osteotomy (TPLO) and are seeking to enhance their surgical proficiency. The focus of this hands-on session is to provide a platform for participants to refine their TPLO techniques through multiple cadaveric procedures.
Participants will spend much of their time performing TPLO procedures across the 2-day workshop. The workshop features live demonstrations by experienced instructors, followed by supervised practice. Post-Op radiographs will be taken and discussed.
Participants are encouraged to register their surgery technician, as well.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this workshop, participants will:
- Demonstrate improved surgical skills in performing TPLO, including accurate osteotomy, precise plate placement, and effective stabilization.
- Identify and manage complications associated with TPLO surgery.
- Assess and interpret postoperative outcomes, including evaluating radiographic results and managing recovery protocols to ensure optimal long-term success.
- Develop enhanced decision-making skills for preoperative planning, intraoperative adjustments, and postoperative care based on case complexity and patient-specific factors.
- Engage in collaborative discussions with peers and instructors about cases, and surgical strategies to continuously improve their practice.
This workshop aims to elevate the participants expertise and confidence in TPLO surgery, ultimately leading to better outcomes for their patients and enhanced surgical practice.

June 18-19, 2026 | Park City, Utah | 2-Day Course
This two-day course is designed for experienced surgeons seeking to advance their understanding and surgical expertise in the management of humeral condylar fractures (HCF) and humeral intracondylar fissures (HIF).
Through specialist-led lectures, interactive case discussions, and hands-on wet-lab sessions, participants will explore the aetiopathogenesis, biomechanics, and clinical decision-making associated with these complex conditions. The course places particular emphasis on the management of chronic, malunion, and dicondylar (“Y” and “T”) fractures, as well as the use of modern anatomical plating systems and stabilisation techniques.
Learning Objectives
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
- Demonstrate an advanced understanding of current literature relating to the aetiopathogenesis and treatment of HIF in predisposed breeds, including Spaniels and French Bulldogs.
- Apply advanced surgical techniques for the management of humeral condylar fractures.
- Develop evidence-based strategies for managing chronic, malunion, and complex dicondylar fractures.
- Identify and manage common complications associated with HIF and HCF.
- Gain practical experience using anatomic bone plates and the Humeral Intracondylar Stabilisation and Repair System (HIRS).

June 25-26, 2026 | Park City, Utah | 2-Day Course
Summary
CORA Based Leveling Osteotomy (CBLO) is a procedure where the tibial plateau angle is modified by centering the saw blade at the location of the CORA (center of rotation of angulation). In doing so there is no secondary translation, i.e., the proximal anatomic axis and distal anatomic axis are aligned. The osteotomy is stabilized with an implant- a specially designed locking plate and counter-sink compression screw. The course will detail surgical planning, surgical technique, post-operative management, complications, and long-term outcome. In this course participants will familiarize themselves with the CBLO procedure through lecture, clinical case presentations, radiographic pre-operative planning, and by performing the procedures on saw bone models and cadavers. Course participants will learn basic techniques in addition to techniques including management of Juvenile CCL injury with CBLO, small breed CBLO application (small plastic bone), and CBLO with concurrent patella luxation correction
Learning Objectives
- At the end of the course, each participant will be able to identify the position of the normal proximal CORA in the canine tibia on a lateral radiographic view.
- At the end of the course, each participant will be able to identify modalities to facilitate diagnosis of the CrCL deficient stifle.
- At the end of the course, each participant will be able to describe the surgical anatomy and approach to the stifle.
- At the end of the course, each participant will be able to describe procedures to examine the menisci and identify tears in the medial or lateral meniscus.
- At the end of the course, each participant will be able to describe the CORA based osteotomy as a procedure to treat ACL injury in the dog.
Participants are encouraged to invite a technician/assistant to join them for the course. Develop your surgical team when you train alongside each other to perform new procedures. Technicians/Assistants must be registered for the same product as their respective veterinarian in order to attend the course.
