Veterinary assistants have no formal training. They are usually hired without experience and are trained on the job by the veterinarian at the clinic and the other staff. A veterinary assistant will often start at minimum wage.

Licensed veterinary technicians (LVTs), certified veterinary technicians (CVTs), registered animal health technologists (RAHTs), and registered veterinary technicians (RVTs) have all passed qualifying examinations to hold the 'technician' or 'technologist' title. Most will have a 2 or 4 year diploma or degree in Animal Health Technology or Veterinary Technology from an accredited college. These people are in high demand, and can command a much higher salary than an assistant. The pay range for a registered technician is $13-24/hour depending on experience and the type of work they do.

Licensed or registered technicians can also specialize within their field. There are recongized accreditations in dentistry, equine medicine, critical care, internal medicine, anesthesiology and behavior. Specialist technicians will make more money then generalists, just like in human medicine.
