The Update for Vet Tech Programs reflect the standards set by the AVMA Committee on Veterinary Technician Education and Activities (CVTEA). We have updated the skills list in alignment with the 2024 App G requirements. Required skills are now marked with an asterisk (*), while recommended skills will not have this designation. Any outdated skills have been made inactive, ensuring that only the current skills are visible in the template.
Additionally, we have provided a "cognitive" and "psychomotor" designation to allow for easy toggling between didactic and psychomotor skills during course setup. These skills are also available for both lab and clinical settings, enabling each school to select which skills they wish to implement in those environments.
