Caution: This course is designed to train basic skills of a Veterinary Assistant. This course is not designed to address the skills needed to become a certified veterinary technician. There is a great deal of difference between the two designations. It does take a bit to get used to, but we urge you to respect the difference as those that hold the designation of Technician or animal nurse, have at minimum an associates degree and have passed the NAVTE board certification.

Starting our 2nd year program in 2021 is the next step in our process to apply for NAVTA affiliation of their Approved Veterinary Assistant examination process. National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America website on Veterinary Assistant programs, guidelines and skills list.
