Collège Boréal officially opens its Ottawa site on the campus of Saint Paul University
Our animal friends are in good hands in Ottawa. Since the start of 2019 academic year, Saint Paul University welcomes students enrolled in Collège Boréal’s Veterinary Care Technician program.
A partnership between these two Francophone institutions of higher learning allows Collège Boréal to continue to offer a unique program in French Ontario, which had been offered on its Alfred campus since 2000.
A stronger learning environment for the Veterinary Care Technician program
The Veterinary Care Technician program’s relocation in Ottawa brings fresh momentum to the program. Collège Boréal has invested $100,000 in the latest learning equipment, which has been provided to the Ottawa Animal Emergency & Specialty Hospital. Boréal students can access this institution to do their practical work and consult with specialists on site.
The Veterinary Care Technician program is a two-year program that provides students with the skills they need to support animal health professionals. Its highly qualified and innovative graduates develop a keen sense of animal welfare.
