A very special thank you to Caroline O’Regan who organised the Veterinary Nursing Careers Day which was held on campus on Thursday March 9th, 2023.
The day proved to be very busy and productive and the Level 6 Veterinary Nurses were inspired and informed about the options available to them to progress their qualifications, careers and personal development which also included options abroad.
It was lovely to see that three of the speakers were former college graduates of St Johns Central College.
