EFSC’s Veterinary Assisting Program Accepting Applications
July 16, 2026
Eastern Florida State College is now accepting applications for its Veterinary Assisting College Credit Certificate (CCC) program. The application deadline is Tuesday, September 15, 2026, and classes begin January 11, 2027.
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.
