The one-year Level 2 Diploma Veterinary Care Assistant (VCA) course was introduced at SRUC’s Aberdeen campus this year to widen participation in the field of veterinary nursing.

The sessions are held in the new clinical skills room which is fully equipped to ensure ‘gold standard’ practical skills training.

As well as attending classes, the students will spend a minimum of 600 hours gaining work experience in a practice.
