The veterinary technician program at MJC is currently being offered to students through the alternate route. Students are required to have three years experience in a clinic, in addition to our courses completed in order to take the state RVT exam.  Students with no prior experience in the vet industry are still eligible for the program, and can begin their work experience through our internship program.  The program is designed to take one year to complete if the courses are taken in the suggested order.  Courses must be completed with a grade of “C” or better in order to count for credit.  A certificate of completion will be given to each student that successfully completes each course. These certificates of completion are required when taking the state exam.
