Accredited veterinary nurse course providers
This page lists accredited veterinary nurse programmes that meet the RCVS Standards Framework for Veterinary Nurse Education and Training.
Programmes are carefully reviewed to ensure they provide high-quality, outcomes-focused training, prioritising animal health, welfare, and public safety. Students learn under the guidance of clinical supervisors in a safe and effective environment.
Through ongoing quality assurance, we monitor courses and training sites, and we welcome feedback from educators, employers, and students to help continually improve veterinary nurse education.
