In the UK, you need five GCSEs, grade C or above, including English language and two passes in either a physical or biological science. You then need to enroll in the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Veterinary Nursing Scheme for which you need to be 17 years old and employed at a veterinary clinic which is registered as a Training Practice. Alternatively you can take a Pre-Veterinary Nursing course, which will allow you to enroll without GCSEs. For this you must be at least 16 and working in a practice. Communication and team working skills are vital, as is being able to follow instructions with 100 per cent accuracy.

In the United States, veterinary nurses are generally referred to as veterinary technicians. Here you need to enroll in an accredited two- or four-year vet tech program at a college and graduate from the program.
