The veterinary sector is worth over £2 billion to the UK economy and numbers of domestic pets are growing every year. In the UK today, there are over 23,000 veterinary surgeons, supported by over 14,000 qualified veterinary nurses who play an important role in supporting animal care and helping owners care for their pets.
Working in partnership with industry experts, Lantra has developed the Level 3 Work-based Diploma in Veterinary Nursing, which has full accreditation from RCVS, as well as the end point assessment apprenticeship standard (equivalent to a Modern Apprenticeship in Scotland and Wales).
