VetSkill announces new suite of dog grooming qualifications at Premier Groom

VetSkill attended Premier Groom 2023 on Sunday, 13 August and shared the exciting new qualifications with attendees. Those visiting the VetSkill stand were met with members of our wonderful qualifications team, who were on hand to share details of our suite of qualifications developed for the dog grooming sector.

We are thrilled to announce we have now added the following qualifications to our growing portfolio:

• VetSkill VTEC Level 2 Certificate for Dog Grooming Assistants

• VetSkill VTEC Level 3 Diploma in Dog Grooming 

VetSkill has engaged with major stakeholders to develop a suite of contemporary qualifications to meet the needs of an evolving industry. These qualifications provide the practical skills and underpinning knowledge for learners to shape a successful career within the dog grooming industry.  

The demand for dog grooming has increased recently, with over 200 recognised Kennel Club dog breeds and hundreds of mixed breeds. With that in mind, these qualifications make for a lucrative career path.

Leanne Ashford, Qualifications Manager, says: 

“Developing this contemporary suite of qualifications will address the skills and knowledge required by those wanting to work within the dog grooming sector. VetSkill wanted to support the growing industry by providing robust, quality, and fit-for-purpose learning opportunities to meet current trends. We want to extend our thanks to our stakeholder group for their involvement; and commitment during these developments.”
