AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This study protocol outlines a parallel-arms trial evaluating a self-guided digital Acceptance and Commitment Training intervention, adapted as 'Unburdened,' for veterinary students transitioning to the workforce. The research involves 200 advanced students in five programs, comparing an intervention group against an assessment-only control using Kirkpatrick outcomes measured at baseline and over twelve months post-graduation. The resource describes the study design, data collection methods, and ethical considerations for this educational implementation aimed at reducing stress and burnout.
