Olds College is offering a new Veterinary Technical Assistant program in January to respond to an industry shortage of entrylevel employees. Enrolment is already underway for the 15-week certificate program, with about one-third of the available spots filled.
Students can get jobs in veterinary clinics, animal shelters, boarding facilities and pet stores once they finish the program. Those in the veterinary field have indicated that finding the time to train new employees is exceedingly difficult. This program is designed to fill the gap.
Students will learn how to safely handle and restrain animals that are being cared for in a veterinary hospital, animal shelter, boarding or pet facility, with a primary focus on cats and dogs. More
