Engaging Presentations

After attending a careers class, a participant had this comment, "Rebecca gave me the hope that I can progress in a profession that at times feels like it is financially hopeless."

"Everything was excellent! I learned a lot!," stated another technician on her evaluation of Career Choices for Veterinary Technicians offered in Denver.
 

"I went to some of your classes at the AVMA convention in Seattle and just wanted to say thank you for such great information. You have a way of making people wanting to take action on things that have been thought about for some time." Shannon Owen, CVT (CACVT member)
 
Tracy Peterson, CVT has this to say:
Rebecca,
I just wanted to thank you for all of your useful information you gave at the MnVTA convention. I have been a technician for 8 years now and have experienced the typical "burnout." One year ago I started taking online classes to finish my bachelors in business administration. I thought I would have to leave the veterinary field in order to achieve the goals I wanted to achieve. I learned from your "Vet Tech Careers and Personal Finances" that  being a vet tech is not limited to a clinic. I had no idea there was so much to offer. I found your lecture to be encouraging and motivating. Thank you so much.
