Is vet tachnician and vet assistance the same thing?

Not in most states and not according to the AVMA. Veterinary assistants are not required to have any educatiton related to the field of veterinary medicine or veterinary technology. There are voluntary educational opportunities, however these are not equivalent to a college degree programs and are instead basic vocational training. There is no over-sight by a professional body to ensure that the majority of these programs provide adequate or correct information. There is no requirement for hands-on training and instructors often have little or no experience or education in the veterinary field. There are a handful of certification programs that are designed and approved by veterinary professional organizations or that are offered by colleges which also offer accredited veteirnary technology programs and these are better choices for someone who wants to be a veterinary assistant. This is an entry level position for working in the veterinary field and is not a recognized profession in any state. Veterinary technicians are required (in most states) to have a degree in veterinary technology from an AVMA accredited veterinary technology program, to have passed the Veterinary Technician National Exam and a state exam in order to be credentialed. There are 2 degree levels offered in veterinary technology---a 2 year associates degree and a 4 year bachelors degree. Those with an associates degree are termed "technicians" and those with a bachelors degree are termed "technologists". The American Veterinary Medical Association maintains a list of accredited degree programs on their website: Inhttp://www.avma.org/education/cvea/vettech_programs/vettech_programs.asp In some states, the use of the title "veterinary technician" and the practice of veterinary technology is recognized as profession and licensure is required. In other states, veterinary technicians are registered or certified. The laws that govern veterinary technicians vary from state to state so for specific information on the laws a person should check their state veterinary practice act or contact their state veterinary licensing board.

Who makes the most vet assistant or vet tech?

Veterinary technicians (credentialed, formally educated persons) generally earn more than a veterinary assistant. Veterinary assisting is an entry level position in the veterinary medical field with no state having formal educat or training requirements for the position. A veterinary assistant is anyone who works ina veterinary facility assisting a veterinarian or veterinary technician but who has not met the requirements to be credentialed as a veterianry technician. A veterinary technician is someone who has a 2-year degree from an American Veterinary Medical Assoc. accredited veterinary technology degree program. To be credentialed (licensed, certified or registered) in a particular state a person must also have passed at least the Veterinary Technician National Exam and usually also a state exam. In many states unless you are credentialed you may not legally use the title "veterinary technician".


What is is a technician?

== == A veterinary technician is (according to the American Veterinary Medical Association and the statutes in many states) a person who has a degree in veterinary technology from an AVMA accredited veterinary technology program and has met all of their state's requirements for credentialing as a veterinary technician. This usually entails having taken and passed both the Veterinary Technician National Exam and a state exam as well as getting a set amount of Continuing Education every year. In many states it is illegal to present yourself as a veterinary technician unless you have met these requirements and are credentialed (licensed, registered or certified) as a veterinary technician in that state. There are still some states that allow anyone regardless of education and training to be presented as a veterinary technician and many veterinarians use this term to mislead clients into feeling like they have well-educated and highly trained staff. It's like calling a person with no medical training that works at a human hospital a nurse. To determine the laws governing veterinary technicians a person should contact their state veterinary medical board or veterinary technician association.
