dip your paw into the world of veterinary nursing
Contemplating becoming a Vet Nurse, but do not have the time to dedicate to the Certificate III in Animal Care Services? Perhaps you’re not yet 100% sure that this is the right career for you?
Our Introduction to Veterinary Nursing Short Course is specifically designed to give you an introduction to the skills and knowledge you need to work as a veterinary nurse and show you what this exciting career is all about. It’s been set up to provide internal credit to our accredited programs so it’s a great way to try out online study and see if veterinary nursing is for you.
This course is your stepping-stone to the ACM20121 Certificate II in Animal Care or ACM30122 Certificate III in Animal Care Services (Animal Care) if you’re not yet ready to commit to a full qualification. It’s a great way to test out if online learning is for you, and if veterinary nursing is really what you want to do.
In this short course, you’ll learn all about veterinary nursing as a career and what to expect, plus animal handling techniques, and some great foundation nursing knowledge all about looking after hospitalised patients. There are no written or practical assessments to complete. You will instead complete online learning activities to demonstrate your knowledge.
While Introduction to Veterinary Nursing is not an accredited course, once you complete it we can transfer your results as internal credits to both the ACM20121 Certificate II in Animal Care and ACM30122 Certificate III in Animal Care Services (Animal Care) programs, so you won’t need to repeat any work from the subjects that you have already done. You’ll cement your learning through completing the written assessments and performing work placement once you do enrol in a qualification. If you’re lucky enough to gain employment in a clinic and enrol in the ACM40418 Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing, we can also apply the internal credits to this course.
