We’re seeking a motivated, positive, intelligent, responsible, customer-centric and skilled veterinary technician who is driven to serve the profession, not through clinical service, but through their support of the team’s educational mission. This individual will assist with CE lab set-up, active support of the educators during courses, cadaveric specimen preparation, live animal support, inventory/ordering, basic data entry/record keeping, scheduling, instrument cleaning/sterilization, shipping/receiving, and general cleaning/laundry. Other duties may include hospitality support.

The ideal candidate knows how to work independently as well as in a team. They can direct and train a group of student employee/volunteers and enjoys watching them grow under their guidance and leadership.

Their strong interpersonal skills will help this individual to welcome and serve our course participants, instructors, and vendors. Strong organizational skills, attention to detail, dependability / responsibility and written / oral communications skills are needed. Detailed laboratory planning and execution are required, but the ability to easily adapt to unforeseen factors is also necessary.

We use a combination of simulators, models, tissue samples, cadavers (mostly animal) and live subjects (mostly animals) in our courses. Though models and simulators are used as alternatives to cadavers where suitable, our hands-on training courses most commonly use animal cadavers. Live animals are used for non-invasive procedures such as examination skills, ultrasound, and endoscopy training. Invasive procedures such as minimally-invasive laparoscopy procedures are only performed when beneficial for the animal. No animals are euthanized as part of our educational program. Skills in live animal patient care are required, but candidates must know that live animal work represents a very small portion of our overall program and the candidate’s work activities.
