I loved my Veterinary Assistant and Animal Welfare course. My Student contact Cleo was a wonderful and patient support team member. At 47 year's old and largely because of the available support, I will be continuing working towards my career in Veterinary nursing. If you are looking at becoming a part of any part of this Animal Industry this is a fantastic way to start and know for sure if this is for you.
