Australian College of Applied Animal Studies (ACAAS)
Did you know WoofPurNay Veterinary Hospital has nursing students studying there through the Australian College of Applied Animal Studies (ACAAS)?
The College provides students with a high level of industry based training aimed at giving graduates the skills required to successfully enter the veterinary nursing profession.
Veterinary nursing is a highly regarded career. The introduction of increasingly sophisticated courses for veterinary nurses, and the efforts of the Veterinary nursing industry (VNCA) to recognise only veterinary nurses with the required qualifications has raised the level of education, leading to greater responsibilities in the workplace.
ACAAS has a unique system of practical learning where students receive individual mentoring (by ACAAS staff) - assisting in real life situations that are part of the daily requirements of a veterinary clinic. This practical training ensures that all students have the highly developed professional skills required by the veterinary industry.
With small class sizes - never more than 15, students enjoy an outstanding learning environment designed to produce practicing veterinary nurses with the knowledge and skills to make a significant contribution to animal health and welfare.
