4/ I would like to obtain a certificate of attendance at the meeting and/or a certificate of continuous training in animal experimentation after the venue

--> I will send you a notice shortly after the venue to ask you if you need a certificate of attendance. On this document will be specified how many hours of continuing education you will be able to value, according to the following calculation:

• You attend mouse model session: you can value half a day of continuous training;
• You attend NHP model session: you can value half a day of continuous training;
• You attend Zebrafish/organoids model session: you can value half a day of continuous training;
• You attend 3R networks session: we cannot value hours of continuous training.

The number of hours that you will be able to value will depend on the sessions for which you will have registered.

For example:

• I only attend the mouse model session, my certificate will specify that I am then entitled to half a day of continuous training.
• I only attend the two Monday sessions on mouse models and non-human primates, my certificate will specify that I am then entitled to one day of continuous training.
• I attend all the sessions of the meeting, my certificate will specify that I am then entitled to a day and a half of continuous training.
