Where did veterinary technicians originate from? Voyage back to the 1960s with Assistant Director of Veterinary Nursing Distance Learning at Purdue University, Josh Clark, as he guides you through the groundbreaking history of veterinary technician training programs in the United States and England. Learn how the profession initially veered away from the name "veterinary" to avoid confusion and competition, and later how the AVMA authorized the title use in the late 1980s.
