Regional Industry Advisory: Veterinary Technologists and Technicians Careers

Join the Los Rios Community College District and Valley Vision for a regional industry advisory focused on Agricultural and Wetland Veterinary Technologists and Technicians, on April 30th from 1 to 3 pm . This session will convene veterinary professionals, educators, and industry partners to explore workforce trends, regional demand, and career pathways in animal health.

Animal health services are critical to supporting producers, natural resource management, and community well-being across the Capital Region. From large animal and wildlife settings to small animal hospitals and specialty clinics, demand across the industry continues to grow, with evolving expectations for technical competencies, safety protocols, biosecurity, compliance, and field readiness. As the industry adapts to changing environmental conditions, regulatory frameworks, and advances in veterinary medicine, alignment between education and workforce needs becomes increasingly important.

This advisory will provide participants with regional labor market insights and create space for facilitated dialogue with practitioners and partners about current hiring needs, skill expectations, certification considerations, and emerging trends impacting the profession. Participants will have the opportunity to explore gaps in training pathways, equipment, and resource needs, as well as ways to strengthen collaboration between industry and education.

Input gathered during this session will help inform program development, strengthen career pathways, and support strategies that advance workforce readiness and high-quality animal health services throughout the region.
