New technologies are revolutionizing the field of veterinary medicine. Not only are they improving pet health, they also are creating new jobs for trained veterinary technicians (or vet techs) credentialed by accredited programs at veterinary technician schools located throughout the country.

Today, veterinary technicians play a vital role in the veterinary field, performing a variety of clinical and technical tasks in vet clinics, research labs, shelters, and even zoos. That enables veterinarians to spend more time diagnosing and treating our pets.

A career as a veterinary technician is a wise choice:

• Career opportunities in the field are expected to increase by more than 36 percent through 2012, according to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
• In some regions, experienced, credentialed vet techs and technologists earn as much as $80,000 annually, reports the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America (NAVTA).

Prepare to succeed in the vet tech marketplace by pursuing formal training at one of the nation's accredited veterinary technician schools. Graduation from veterinary tech school is now a must.
