Do you have to be licensed to be a veterinary technician in the state of Geogia?

Georgia doesn't license veterinary technician, the state registers veterinary technicians. And you must be registered with the state veterinary medical board in order to work as or use any title that would indicate that you are a "veterinary technician" in that state. There are also certain duties that are limited to a Registered Veterinary Technician, meaning that a veterinary assistant (someone working in a veterinary facility but not a registered veterinary technician or licensed veterinarian) may not perform them.
