Our recent survey of Registered Veterinary Technologists (RVTs) in British Columbia has yielded compelling results. With a strong response rate of 53%, RVTs have voiced their perspectives loud and clear. Notably, RVT tenure averages 14 years, up from 11 in 2022, indicating a positive trend towards longer careers. However, challenges remain, particularly concerning job satisfaction tied to wages, benefits, and professional development opportunities. Delve into our survey findings to stay informed about how BCVTA is championing RVTs’ well-being and career advancement in our province. 

Thank-you to the amazing supporters of BC RVTs!
