The Benefits of 4-Year Vet Tech Degrees and Innovations in Online Programs with App State’s Jennifer Serling, RVT, VTES

Veterinary technician programs have expanded in remarkable ways over the past decade, and there's a push towards getting a four-year degree, with even more advanced degrees on the horizon. This week, we're speaking with the interim Director of Appalachian State University's Veterinary Technology B.S. Program, Jennifer Serling CVT RVT VTES BVSc, to discuss the benefits and pros of a four-year veterinary technician degree and the value of remote education.  Hosts Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, RVT, MPA, explore some of the exciting changes and opportunities in in-person and online veterinary technician programs. This week's guest has a long history of innovating veterinary technician curricula, and we're thrilled to cover her thoughts on why obtaining a four-year veterinary technician degree has potential impacts far beyond clinical practice.
