Veterinary Technician - College Diploma

Northern’s Veterinary Technician program is an accredited two-year diploma that will set you up for a front-line job at a zoo, animal shelter, research facility, and more.

You’ll learn how to manage a veterinary practice. You’ll acquire the expertise to counsel clients about optimal pet nutrition. Become a pro at measuring vital signs, performing basic exams, and administering meds as prescribed by a vet.

Along the way, you’ll also learn to recognize the behavioural signs of small animals, and even explore triage, lab work, anesthesia, surgical assistance and prophylactic dental procedures.

The result? You’ll graduate with the handling skills and know-how you need to become a confident member of any animal care team.

Since we are accredited by the Ontario Association of Veterinary Technicians (OAVT) our graduates are eligible to write the Veterinary Technician National Examination (VTNE) examination.

Students will learn to perform basic patient examination, collect data on vital signs, administer medications and prepare pharmaceuticals as prescribed by a veterinarian. They will explore anesthesia, animal nursing, surgical assistance, dental prophylactic procedures, diagnostic laboratory work and tests, such as blood chemistries, culture and sensitivity, and electrocardiograms. This program covers veterinary practice management skills including computer applications, recognizing behavioral signs of small animals and educating and counseling clients in the area of pet nutrition.
