Join the veterinary healthcare team by earning your two-year Veterinary Technology Diploma. This program combines classroom learning with hands-on practice in areas like surgical nursing, anesthesia, anatomy, radiography, dental care, lab techniques, animal nutrition, medication management, and professional communication. Gain real-world experience through campus labs and off-site rotations at veterinary hospitals, equine facilities, agricultural operations, and animal shelters.
After completing the program, you'll qualify to take the Veterinary Technician National Examination (VTNE).
