Trust me if you do the course or not...there isnt many animal care jobs out there at all really and the ones that there is pay bad.i did 4 years at college doing BETC HND's national diploma and a first diploma and there still isnt anything going.so i had to try something else and thats why im doing my veterinary nursing now.its such a shame but i guess its eveyones dream job

would agree with nuttyaboutgeckos any animal care job has piss poor wages,been there myself but those courses look pretty good and may give you the edge if it came to job hunting,if not you will of learnt loads only wish i had the time to take on something like that then maybe i wouldnt be on here asking all these divvy questions
