Course Overview
Have you always wanted to work in animal healthcare and taking care of pets and wildlife? This certificate is a great first step into the veterinary sector and will allow you to get firsthand experience of working in a vet clinic. Veterinary assistants help vets and vet nurses in the day-to-day running of the clinic with tasks ranging from administration to assisting pet owners and their pets before, during and after their visit.
Many graduates use this course to gain an entry-level position in veterinary surgery and improve their employment prospects. This is also a great course to see if you would enjoy working in this industry before going on to do further study to become a vet nurse, technician or practising vet. This course has been developed for students who have had no previous experience working with animals and are looking to find work looking after and caring for pets and wildlife.
