Feedback from faculty, staff, and veterinary and veterinary nursing students may help indicate the students' needs for clinical skills review and revision. In a recent review by Malone (2019), it was noted that while graduating students do show improvement in confidence and competence from the start of the clinical year, they remain less than confident in many technical skills and abilities at graduation, which is echoed in other studies (Lofstedt, 2003). Similarly, only 69% of 2008 University of Queensland veterinary graduates felt satisfied with their overall skills, and only 70% felt prepared to enter practice (Schull et al., 2011). Feedback from faculty and staff may also be helpful to identify specific skills that require attention. For example, a University of Minnesota in‐house survey of technicians, interns, and residents identified student challenges with animal restraint and venipuncture (Malone, 2019).
