dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted on Open and Distance Learning (ODL) programme by veterinary university, Chennai for veterinary practitioners in Erode, Salem and Coimbatore districts of Tamil Nadu, India. In order to conduct the study, field veterinarians working in the public veterinary dispensaries/hospitals formed the control group and experimental group for the study. Among the field veterinarians, the participants of the ODL programme formed the experimental group while the non-participants of the ODL programme working under similar conditions to that of experimental group in all other aspects served as the control group. The data were collected using a pre-tested questionnaire. It was found that about two-thirds (65%) of the participants and one-half (50%) of the non-participants were in the middle age group. Over three-fourths of the participants (77%) and non-participants (85%) possessed only B.V.Sc. Degree. It is inferred that most of the practising veterinarians who had enrolled in ODL preferred correspondence model followed by multimedia model. Among the 14 variables, age, in the case of participants was found to have positive and significant relationship with knowledge level, and access to computer, in the case of participants and distance between residence and place of posting in the case of non-participants, were found to have positive and significant relationship with skill level.en_US
