Animal keeper in clinic and research
Since 2010, we offer apprenticeships as animal keeper for clinic and research. Our team of trainers consists of 6 members who supervise 1 to 3 trainees per year.
The training as animal keeper for clinic & research usually takes 3 years and can be shortened to 2 ½ year with appropriate suitability and qualification. The vocational school is located in Düsseldorf, where block teachings take place regularly. The practical part of the training takes place primarily in the institute's laboratory animal husbandry (mice and fish).
Furthermore, inter-company training measures take place at various cooperation partners in Wuppertal, Essen and Cologne. These form an integral part of the vocational training.
