Veterinary Assistant, A.A.S.

If you’ve always loved animals and want a hands-on role in their care, the Veterinary Assistant program is a great place to begin. You’ll learn how to care for both small and large animals, support veterinarians during exams, and recognize signs of illness or stress. You’ll also build confidence in clinical tasks like scheduling, cleaning, and client communication. Whether in a vet clinic, shelter, or animal facility, you’ll be ready to make a real difference.
