Yes, but only a "lay" assistant and not a registered technician. A registered veterinary technician has not just a GED, but also an Associate's or Bachelor's degree earned after the GED (or high school diploma).
the definition of a 'lay person' is non ecclesiastical. He can, for example, be received into a convent of monks without taking holy orders. Further more, he can assist the Priest in Church as a Sidesman, an assistant to the Churchwarden. He can also preach.
Assistant Principals.
"Assistant veterinarian" is not a title I'm familar with. "Associate veterinarian" is a veterinarian who works at a clinic but is not an owner or part-owner of the clinic; this job has all the difficulties of any veterinary position. "Veterinary assistant" is a lay trained individual who assists the veterinarian with non-technical tasks such as cleaning the exam rooms, moving clients and patients from the reception area to the exam room and back out and other similar tasks. A veterinary assistant's job can be physical demanding but doesn't have the same demands a veterinarian's position does.

A general's assistant is an adjuvant.
