(FLEX) Estudios rápidos de veterinaria para amantes de la biología, la zoología y los animales (mayores de 13 años)

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the veterinary field is expected to grow by 18% between now and 2028. This is much higher than the growth for other professions. From cute dolphins to scruffy wolves to coyotes, leopards, and scorpions, the health, husbandry, and conservation of wildlife animals really captures the hearts of children all over the world. Likewise, more people are owning pets now than ever before and this includes "exotic" pets.

Welcome to this fast-paced course. The live version of this class was the first long-term on-going veterinary course brought to Outschool and I'm honored to offer it as a flex class as well. I'm so excited to bring you a "fluff-free" flex course filled to the brim with practical information that any aspiring veterinarian would want to know. If you need an introductory course, my 4-day Camp is a great place to start! Most students here have taken the 4-day Camp first. Let's dive into some of veterinary science's popular topics and take a look at these fascinating animals!

**Please Note** I will not diagnose nor provide medical advice (diagnosis, treatment, or prescriptions) for any student's pet. 
** No Live Classes **

Each Week:
Two classes are posted on Mondays. 
Each class (2x per week) will include two lecture-style, coached-typed videos and an interactive portion of the class. Flex courses are self-paced. Age-appropriate clips of vet care may be shown.  I respond to student questions within 24-48 hours unless otherwise noted. Each class has three videos. The longest group of class videos totals 74 minutes. The shortest is 29 minutes. Most average 45-55 minutes for all three videos for one class combined.

Interactive Class Activities are Optional and Include: 
- polls, quizzes, and games within the video itself
- decision-based games
- one escape room game
- two grid-logic puzzles
- weekly discussion discussions on the classroom wall
- opportunities for students to make videos and present

There are some printables included such as guided notes and diagrams. If a learner does not know how to use a printer, a parent may need to help students access these posted weekly in the classroom. They are optional. I have provided many ways in this class for learners to learn based on different learning styles. If your child does not thrive with a type of learning, skip it. Please message me with any questions before or after enrollment.
