Avma
Anyone have any feedback on the Penn Foster Online School?
I am thinking of enrolling in the Penn Foster Vet Tech degree program. This is an actual associates degree and is accredited by the Avma. I was curious if a potential employer would prefer a hand-on education to this online education.
Any thoughts or comments?
hello, I am currently enrolled in the vet tech program at penn foster. As long as the AVMA accredited anyone should hire you. I have had some job interviews so far and they knew I was going to penn foster.
If you want to know more about if vet places will hire you, call or email them. Tell them you are thinking about attending an online college and going to major as a veterinary technician. It is AVMA accredited and I have to get 300 hours of experience after semesters 2 and 4. See what they tell you.
I personally think it is worth it. Any more questions i would be glad to help you. Send me an email.

Complementary and Alternative Veterinary Medicine Considered $79.99 Complementary and Alternative Veterinary Medicine Considered is a book that belongs in your veterinary library. If you are a veterinarian wondering if you should incorporate complementary and alternative veterinary medicine (CAVM) into your practice, if you have recently hired an associate eager to try such things as acupuncture or homeopathy, or if you have clients asking you about chiropractic, herbal, or magnetic field therapy for their pets, you’ll want to understand the history, science and ethics behind such therapies. In its 2001 Guidelines for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) recognizes the growing interest in CAVM, and encourages the critical examination of these therapies using the scientific method. Following the AVMA’s lead on this subject, Complementary and Alternative Veterinary Medicine Considered thoroughly examines a variety of CAVM therapies and asks important questions regarding alternative treatments. For example, is acupuncture effective in pain relief? What is homeopathy? What is the history behind chiropractic? What does the research say (and not say) about various CAVM modalities? And, just as importantly, what are the ethical and regulatory considerations concerning such therapies? This book has the answers to those questions and more. Complementary and Alternative Veterinary Medicine Considered will help practicing veterinarians to make informed decisions about specific CAVM therapies. This text evaluates various prevalent therapies, and will give veterinarians the ethical and scientific bases they need to make sound decisions regarding CAVM therapies Coverage includes but is not limited to: * Acupuncture and acupressure; * Energy medicine; * Manual therapy (chiropractic); * Manual therapy (massage); * Magnetic and electromagnetic therapy; * Laser and light therapy; * Homeopathy; and * Herbal therapy. |
