The Equi-Assist® concentration complements existing VN concentrations in veterinary biology and veterinary business management. Students enrolled in the Equi-Assist® concentration will be trained to coordinate communication and care between a horse’s owner, trainer, veterinarian and managers. This specialized training will increase the veterinary technologist’s ability to be a valuable resource on the veterinary medical team, allowing better use of technologists in the workforce 
and providing a strategic advantage for the 
equine veterinarian.
