My wife is currently working on her Vet Assistant program through the Animal Behavior College. She received an email today stating that the college was starting a new program in aquarium maintenance. They say its a 10 stage program, starting at the basics of fresh and saltwater, then moving to advanced setups. Including fish and invert husbandry. If you pay in full at enrollment its $1,600. Just thought I would pass the word along.

My wife is currently working on her Vet Assistant program through the animal behavior college, apparently her bachelor's in captive wildlife care and education does not qualify you to work in a vets office. Anyway, she received an email today stating that the college was starting a new program in aquarium maintenance.

Interesting! It may be helpful if you can share more information about the name of the school and any other related details (e.g., online, onsite only, etc.). Thanks.

Was wondering if your spouse ended up going through with the ABC did they like it and has it been successful? I've been looking into this! c:

She did go through ABC for Vet Assistant. She enjoyed it. Its very much student lead. You read the course material and test by a certain date. However instructors were very responsive when she had questions.
