This 2007 ILAR Journal issue (Volume 48, Issue 2) provides an update to the 1991 ILAR Report on Education and Training in the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals. It contains articles focusing on contemporary methods for building or expanding institutional animal care and use programs.

"Farm animals have certain needs and requirements and these needs and requirements do not necessarily change because of the objectives of the research or teaching activity. Therefore, regardless of the teaching or research objective, the FASS Ag Guide should serve as a primary reference document for the needs and requirements of agricultural animals." (Preface, FASS Ag Guide) 

Online learning for those involved in the care and use of laboratory animals. A limited number of courses are available for "free;" others require a fee.

Available for a fee, CITI's courses cover the care and use of animals in research, teaching, and testing.
