About our Vet Nurse course

Are you passionate about animals and their care? Have you ever thought about becoming a Vet Nurse? Our nationally recognised Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing is designed to provide you with the knowledge and skills required to commence your career as a veterinary nurse or to gain a national qualification as an experienced professional. With over 80% of AVT veterinary nursing students gaining employment during or after they complete their studies, studying with AVT will put you ahead of the rest. Take your love of animals and a desire to care for animals, and choose this course to provide you with the necessary hands-on skills and theoretical knowledge to work in the veterinary and animal care industry.

How will you gain hands-on experience to become a veterinary nurse?

Whether you choose to study online or on-campus all students are required to complete workplace practical training. If you are based in Perth, Western Australia we will organise a placement in a reputable veterinary clinic for you at no extra cost. The best part about it is many of our Perth based students gain employment from their work placement organisation either throughout or after their training. If you are not based in Perth, you will be required to secure a work placement location for your practical training. For more information view the workplace practical training information in our course delivery page.

For entry into Veterinary Nursing you must have any one of the following prerequisites:-

Certificate II in Animal Studies or Certificate II in Horse Care*
Certificate III or a higher level qualification in an animal science discipline
The equivalent skills and knowledge in a relevant animal science discipline (to a Certificate II level)

* AVT's 'ACM20217 Cert II in Horse Care' meets the prerequisite for our Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing course. You will need to confirm whether or not this prerequisite meets your institutions requirements if not studying with AVT.

You will also:-

have a reliable internet connection and access to a desktop computer, laptop or electronic device. You will be required to write, submit and in some cases upload assessments and various types of multi-media files online, therefore we strongly recommend using a desktop or laptop computer for your studies

be physically capable of restraining animals, handling animal feed e.g. large bags of food of up to 10 kg and standing for extended periods of time
need to be a minimum of 18 years of age or be turning 18 during the academic year

As a full-time student you will attend our campus in Bentley, Western Australia to participate in face-to-face lectures, group activities, tutorials and practical lessons. You will also be invited to off-site excursions and field trips to various animal related establishments. We run two separate classes to ensure you receive a personable learning experience. Every student has the opportunity to contribute and participate actively in classroom and practical sessions. In addition to classes we also ensure students have access to ongoing tutoring, support and instruction.

How much study will you need to do?

Our full-time on-campus course is a one year course, spread over 4 terms similar to schools. You will commence in February and graduate by mid-December, when you will be qualified and ready for employment. However, many of our students are offered and commence paid employment during their studies.

Perth based? - If you are a Perth based student, applying for a Jobs & Skills WA funded position, AVT will pre-organise your work placement in consultation with you. We endeavour to cater for specific requests where possible such as your availability on given days of the week. If funded applications are not currently open and you wish to apply for a full fee paying position, you will need to be currently employed by a veterinary hospital or clinic.

Not Perth based? - If you are not Perth based, you will need to organise your own work placement to suit your location and commitments. We will provide you with a comprehensive resource to assist you in securing a work placement in your local area.

Already employed? - If you are already employed in a veterinary practice, it is possible your employed hours may contribute towards your practical training hours.

How often should you attend a work placement?

Whether you are organising your own placement or you have a pre-organised work placement, we always recommended attending a veterinary practice on a regular basis throughout your studies, eg one day a week or one day a fortnight. Depending on your weekly or fortnightly attendance throughout the course, you may also need to complete week blocks to complete all assessments.

Who provides workplace insurance?

Your course fee includes insurance cover for the mandatory work placement you take during your course regardless of the course delivery method you choose (applies to students in Australian workplaces only).

“I began studying the Certificate IV of Veterinary Nursing as a full time student at AVT at the beginning of 2017. I went into the course having never worked in a vet clinic before, and unsure if I would even be a good vet nurse. Luckily AVT has the most incredible lecturers who encouraged and helped me every step of the way & got me into an awesome clinic for my work placement. My work placement clinic ended up hiring me and I am now working my dream job and doing things I would never of thought I’d be able to do in such a short amount of time. The personalised support and encouragement I received from all of the staff at AVT is second to none and I can not thank them all enough for everything they have done for me. Studying at Applied Vocational Training was definitely the best decision of my life!” Rachel Gray 2017 Veterinary Nurse Graduate
