CCD's Veterinary Technology Apprenticeship Program is a collaboration between the college, the employer, and Apprenticeship Colorado and supports the apprenticeship motto of "Earn While You Learn!"

The program begins in the fall semester and runs continuously for five semesters, including two Winterim terms, for 21 months of continual study. Vet Tech apprentices work approximately 30 hours per week, as a paid employee, for an approved apprentice employer for the duration of the program. Traditional college breaks do not occur with the apprenticeship program, and time off follows the policy of each employer.

If you are interested in becoming a Veterinary Technology apprentice but still have pre-requisite requirements, consider becoming a Pre-Apprentice. Admission to the apprenticeship requires a GPA of 3.0 or greater in the pre-requisite courses only.

All courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or above before graduation. The apprenticeship track curriculum will help you learn about the courses being offered. Learn more about the application process and apply today! Be sure to select Apprenticeship Track under "Program Selection."
