(I-Canada-News.Com, June 12, 2012 ) La Prairie, Canada -- Online Veterinary Technician School has compiled a load of information pertaining to veterinary technician schools. The data is categorized by state and is very easy to navigate. Those looking to turn their passion for animals into a career will be greatly served by the treasure trove of content contained within the website.
It is said that those who do what they love for a living never work a day in their life. Well, those who love caring for animals can make a career of it by becoming a vet tech, a profession that is well in demand all across the country. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, veterinary technicians are ranked among the top 20 professions that are expected to grow the fastest between 2008 and 2018; the growth is projected to reach a whopping 36 percent.
According to Online Veterinary Technician School, aspiring veterinary technicians need to arm themselves with the right information prior to deciding on where to study for the profession. This is an important decision as it will come into play later on during the certification phase. The website emphasizes the importance of attending a school that is accredited by the American Veterinary medical Association (AVMA). This is a requirement for taking the national licensing exam upon completion of a vet tech program.
In addition, future students need to decide whether to shoot for a 2-year or a 4-year study program. And while the minimum requirement to become a veterinary technician only calls for a 2-year program, becoming a veterinary technologist requires a 4-year program. Being a veterinary technologist is a step higher than a technician, and thus leads to a better position and higher pay.
As for how much a vet tech makes, the website states that the average salary is about $29,000 a year. The top 10 percent make upwards of $40,000, the bottom 10 percent earns around $19,000. As with most professions, experience plays a major role in determining a vet tech’s earnings.
