Time management is one of the biggest challenges for technical college students. As you prepare for a career, you need to develop an efficient schedule for both the theoretical and practical training side of your learning as well as meeting assessment deadlines.
We’re excited to announce a new partnership between AVT and the Dogs’ Refuge Home in Shenton Park for our ACM20121 Certificate II in Animal Care students! This collaboration offers our students a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience working with diverse dog breeds, learning about animal health, behaviour, and shelter operations alongside the skilled staff at Dogs’ Refuge Home. This partnership, along with our ongoing work with Cat Haven, enhances our students’ practical learning, preparing them for fulfilling careers in animal welfare.
