Jessica Carter was working in entry level jobs in clinics and animal shelters when coworkers encouraged her to enroll in Penn Foster's online veterinary technician program. With two jobs, online learning worked for Jessica. "I was able to get my school done in between work shifts without having to worry about making classes on time," she said. Now, Jessica works as an RVT and training coordinator at Upstate Vet in Asheville, North Carolina. With a passion for learning and teaching, she helped develop and put into practice a training protocol at her clinic. "I'm now using my knowledge from PF to teach new hires on proper procedures and protocol," said Jessica. Jessica hopes to teach and speak at conferences in the future, and is working toward her Veterinary Technology Bachelor of Applied Science degree with Penn Foster. Listen to her story.
