    Thank you for the video! penn foster really needs more videos or something explaining the whole process. There's so much text about how to upload things but nothing about how to actually FIND a mentor. its so stressful >

    Thank You 😊 this video was very informative. I just finished the Veterinary Assistant program through Penn Foster and got my Career Diploma in July 2021. I’m enrolling in the Veterinary Technician course through Penn Foster in January 2022.

      Do you need to do the veterinary assistant course first? Or can I do the veterinary technician course first? I've been wondering this.

      @@xxxMarijaaa You do not need a VA program/certificate. In fact, most vet offices will train on the job (preferably if you have vet experience) but it's not a real degree or anything. You need a degree with Vet Tech and need to become licensed/certified/registered depending on state requirements.

    Very informative. This will help me a lot in the future. I'm doing the Vet Assist right now with Penn Foster. I hope to then do the Vet Tech.

      @@gabrielapalacios9641 I love how flexible the program is and how inexpensive it is and has payment plans for more expensive programs. There are teachers available to work with you if you don’t understand something but it’s not a virtual class. It’s more just lots of reading which I don’t mind. But the only thing graded are tests everything else is practice quizzes and I don’t think anyone looks over it till the end to make sure you pass the program. You have to have a 65% average to pass.

    Thanks for the video! I’ve been in the field for almost 5 years now, mostly as reception, and all of a sudden that I’m about to start my externship I’m feeling like an idiot 😫

    hi!! i saw that they require two externships, would have to take place at two different animal hospitals or could you do them both at the same hospital? i only have one large hospital that they partner with near me and the others are quite far so im hoping they would allow my externships to take place at the same one
