Our state-of-the-art clinical hands-on training facility for veterinarians.
A wide range of veterinary events are regularly hosted at the Oquendo Center, including hands-on labs, lectures, workshops, symposiums and demonstrations. All of our multi-purpose rooms are configurable with either closed (soundproof) or open air walls. Additionally, we are able to accommodate 12 fully-equipped stations in our surgery suite, allowing for a more unified, hands-on learning experience.
The Oquendo Center also boasts an ultramodern auditorium with a personal desk and electrical outlet for each of its 190 seats. This spacious room features interactive pen display technology, allowing the audience to closely view and follow each step. What’s more, the same presentation can be viewed simultaneously in various other rooms throughout the building, as well as other room activities (surgical techniques or demonstrations) can be viewed by an audience of 190 in the auditorium.
Yet another benefit is the built-in A/V capability – all rooms including the auditorium are already fully equipped, saving both the time and money normally incurred from a third party solution. As an added bonus, free wireless Internet service runs throughout the facility. The Oquendo Center is the perfect place for any veterinary event.
