Our Animal Health Education Centre serves as a vibrant hub for students, animals, staff, and peers to foster a deep appreciation for animal care.
This dynamic learning environment enhances the skills and knowledge of our staff and program curriculum, making it the go-to place for Animal Health training. Our center boasts cutting-edge facilities designed to support your learning journey including specialized instructional spaces, a small animal hospital and animal housing units as well as the National Meat Training Centre.
The new National Meat Training Centre will further enhance the capacity to provide skill and expertise to the meat industry. The new centre has an expanded retail store to allow the public to taste the skill and innovation of this program. The Olds College Retail Meat Store sells products created by the students of our renowned Meat Processing Certificate program. As a social enterprise, the Olds College Retail Meat Store is driven to create enough profit to fund our Meat Processing Certificate program.
In September 2024, we officially opened the doors to our newly renovated Animal Health Education Centre — a world-class learning space designed to immerse students in real-world, hands-on experiences that allows them to foster collaboration with industry professionals and make a meaningful impact on animal health.
We’re proud to be featured in a new case study by Sony, showcasing how Sony’s advanced AV technology is transforming the way we teach, learn and collaborate.
With Sony Pro BRAVIA displays, SRG-X400 cameras and VPL-FHZ80 projectors, our students and faculty benefit from crystal-clear visuals, flexible remote participation and enhanced surgical and procedural observation — all in real time and high definition.
A huge thank you to Applied Electronics Ltd. and our IT team for making this vision a reality.
