The training is conducted partly online and partly in physical meetings. You will receive all information during a potential interview. Internships are included in the course and are arranged locally by Växa.

The training is conducted by specialists in areas such as fertility, animal health, and breeding, and maintains high quality.

We have open positions in several locations in Sweden:

Östersund, Uppsala, Flen, Laholm, Falkenberg, Falköping, Vänersborg, Ingelstad, Bredaryd, Eksjö, and Vimmerby. Being mobile is a plus.
