Eastern Florida State College is accepting applications through Monday, Sept. 15, 2025 for its Veterinary Assisting College Credit Certificate (CCC) program, with classes beginning Jan. 12, 2026.

This one-year, task-oriented program prepares students with the hands-on skills needed to support veterinary technicians and veterinarians in clinical settings.

Graduates are trained in essential animal care tasks such as feeding, bathing, exercising, and restraining animals during exams and treatments.

Students may also learn to perform basic lab procedures, including drawing blood and collecting urine samples.

Upon completion, the 14 credits earned in the Veterinary Assisting CCC program can be applied toward EFSC’s Veterinary Technology Associate in Science (A.S.) degree.
