SUMMARY:Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Alaska’s first and only Veterinary Technology Program\, established earlier this year\, is excited to unveil its new education suite\, created to simulate a modern veterinary clinic. It includes a surgery/anesthesia area\, a diagnostic lab\, x-ray machine\, an ultrasound machine (generously donated by UAA’s ultrasonography program) and more.\nStudents can practice their new training on several animal simulators including a realistic K9 Diesel dog simulator that can be used for anesthesia monitoring training\, CPR training\, phlebotomy\, and several other skill building tasks.\nDr. Judith Montalbano says\, “Establishing a veterinary technician program has long been a dream for me and many others in Alaska’s veterinary community. Starting our first class of students\, this fall has fueled excitement in Alaska’s veterinary care providers. We embrace our role as a trusted and respected partner to the pet-owning public and their veterinary healthcare teams.”\nTraining more veterinary technicians to enter the workforce should make getting veterinary care in a timely manner better for the pet owners of the state.\nThe new program is providing skilled workers for a high-demand industry nationally. Bureau of Labor Statistics shows an expected job growth for Veterinary Technicians and Technologists of 19% from 2023-2033.\nJoin us at the Mat-Su College campus on November 15th at 10 am for the ribbon-cutting ceremony and walk-through.\nIn the spirit of giving back\, we’re also collecting pet food donations for the local animal shelter! Bring a bag of pet food to help support animals in need. \nEvent Contact Nick McDermott\nEvent email: nmmcdermott@alaska.edu
