EXPERIENCE RELATED TO THE EDUCATIONWe have surveys showing that students who educate themselves with us have found jobs as veterinary assistants or in similar professions. An Eacademy has trained animal clinic secretaries and assistants for 17 years. We find that the need is great and that assistants will be in demand in the job market due to a lack of trained personnel in many areas.
