滨迟鈥檚 Veterinary Technician Week and this year鈥檚 theme is 鈥淐redentialed Veterinary Technicians Change Lives.鈥� This theme highlights the significant impact that credentialed veterinary technicians have on the lives of their patients, clients, colleagues and the community. 最新糖心Vlog offers a veterinary assistant certificate program and veterinary technician associate degree at several campus locations.
This week we would like to give special recognition to all of our program directors, clinical directors and instructors who work tirelessly to prepare our dedicated students as they enter the workforce.聽 Veterinary Technicians are compassionate, caring, dedicated professionals, and are often the first people we encounter when our pets are struggling or facing an emergency.
In addition to the human instructors, we would also like to highlight some of our four-legged 鈥渁ssistants,鈥� who are more than willing to help out our students (of course they鈥檙e paid with snacks and snuggles for their service).
Check out some of our current 鈥渃ampus critters鈥� who help to play a crucial role in the education of our students.
See for yourself why they are so special. They have even provided bios to help you get to know them.
