About Us
 
 
 
"We appreciate having the ACT training DVDs available for our veterinary health care team members. The training program delivers a consistent message to all team members as we create the foundation upon which we will build as they gain experience.

The ACT program saves us enormous time that may be devoted to other areas of skill development, as team members complete each ACT module on their own. The program also allows team members to refresh their knowledge and skills in a particular area at any time.

The information and training contained in the ACT modules are delivered in a clear and professional manner. We require that all team members successfully complete the "Veterinary Foundations", "Kennel Assistant Training", "Receptionist Training", and "Assistant Training I & II". In addition, we require our veterinary nurses and veterinary assistants successfully to complete the "Technician Skills Series". Our supervisory staff must successfully complete the Management Training Module".

All in all, the ACT training series allows our hospital team to speak with one voice."

Celebrating, protecting, and sharing the special love of animals,

As a busy doctor, I have never been able to find the time to really train the theory part of our jobs and it’s been a lot of fun to see the staff’s confidence improve. I feel like we finally have a plan and it’s up to them to take advantage of it. My wife Lori took this training one step further and has made it available to 12 volunteers that have had a 3 hour class once weekly for the past 6 weeks. This bold step has allowed us to actually hire from this group in addition to providing a resource for the community. Our plans are to train an army of people that know about animals and have a passion for adopting them out to the community.

“As the lead instructor of the Veterinary Assistant program at Apollo College Spokane, WA campus, I have found the video materials developed by Animal Care Training are an excellent resource for anyone involved in Veterinary staff education. Using these materials in combination with lectures and labs my students are provided a very realistic view of clinical situations and standards. The quality of these materials are outstanding, and show the dedication of the Animal Care Training staff to education of the Veterinary Clinic team.”

“A very wise woman told me one time that the way to increase the chances of students learning is presenting material that they can hear, see and write. The ACT videos help me to realize this teaching tool. Thank you for giving me a great foundation to build my curriculum on.”

“After viewing the video sets, I immediately found that they were very professionally laid out and provided for teacher/student interaction as well as providing opportunities for hands on activities. These ACT videos have become my main resource used in teaching our Veterinary Medical Assistantship curriculum. I challenge you to find better materials anywhere.”
