Animal Care – HND Animal Care – HNC Animal Care – NC Animal Care – an Introduction

Borders College courses in Animal Care provide education and training for those aiming for a career in working with animals. They combine academic study with practical experience and are nationally recognised by employers and educational institutions.

Throughout the course we visit local animal rescue centres, kennels, catteries, farms, riding centres and animal-related businesses where you will have the opportunity to practise animal handling skills and learn more about the care and welfare of animals.

Local animal establishments, including some veterinary practices, offer students the chance to gain experience in a real working environment.
