The College of Animal Welfare is offering fully funded apprenticeship training (Level 3 Diploma) to under-19s looking to start training as a veterinary nurse this September.
According to the College, the only thing your practice would need to pay for is the student's RCVS fees i.e. enrolment and examination fees.
The next Advanced Apprenticeship in Veterinary Nursing programme starts the week commencing 3 September from the College's Huntingdon, Potters Bar and Leeds centres and enrolments are being taken now.
The College says that if your student is waiting for exam results this Summer they can still apply now, and if for any reason they are unsuccessful and do not get the required grades your practice will receive a full refund.

well hopefully as the apprenticeship is fully funded and wouldnt be costing the practice too much they would be able to afford to pay their apprentices a little more than the £2.60/hr minimum wage for under 19s and 19yr olds in their first year of apprenticeship? Because if they dont I dont see too many of them seeing the course through, which is helpful to nobody.
