Have you been there, done that and got the gown and gloves?
If so, why not share your knowledge and experience of veterinary nursing with the next generation? At The College of Animal Welfare we regularly recruit for a number of teaching positions. Previous experience in teaching is not usually required as successful candidates will join our teacher training programme and be mentored as their career develops. A list of roles that we have recruited for in 2017 so far can be found below…
Veterinary Nursing Lecturer – Lecturing is perfect for those with a genuine enthusiasm and passion for their subject.
