Apex College of Veterinary Technology

Apex College of Veterinary Technology Apex College of Veterinary Technology, the only program in Colorado with a functioning clinic, real clients, and patients with medical necessity.

Anyone can make classrooms, we have those too, but offer a hands-on education. Apex College of Veterinary Technology offers an AAS degree program in Veterinary Technology and 2 related professional certificate programs - Veterinary Practice Management and Veterinary Assisting. We also offer a wide variety of Continuing Education options for every level of veterinary professional. The 2 year Veteri

nary Technology program is approved by the Colorado DPOS, fully accredited (not on probation) with our institutional accreditor, and initially accredited (on the first attempt) with the AVMA/CVTEA. Our graduates are eligible to sit for the Veterinary Technician National Exam (VTNE). Our modern and well equipped medical campus is designed to be accessible. Our facilities emulate contemporary veterinary practice in order to set our students up for success in a wide variety of veterinary settings. Our fully functional facilities (open to the public) provide ample opportunity for students to gain skills and confidence on patients requiring medical care - we do not practice on animals that do not need medical care. Our doors are open Monday through Friday during business hours. Students can drop in to study, check out library books, or practice laboratory skills. Medical procedures for real patients are scheduled on Wednesdays and Fridays each quarter. Prospective students are also welcome during business hours, even without an appointment. See what we have to offer! All you need to do is open the door.

Throwback to Gerryโ€™s very first blood draw last fall! ๐Ÿฆ’

Routine blood collection gives us valuable baseline health information that helps our team monitor changes over time and support proactive, preventative care. By establishing whatโ€™s normal for Gerry, we can better track his health and ensure he continues to thrive for years to come.

Preventative care starts long before thereโ€™s a problemโ€”and Gerry was a star for this important milestone!
