Paraveterinary workers in Norway, known as "Dyrepleier", include veterinary nurses, veterinary technicians and veterinary assistants.

These workers are represented by the Norwegian Veterinary Nurse and Assistant Association (NDAF—Norsk dyrepleier- og assistentforening). The Norwegian veterinary nurse/technician education is a two-year university-level program taught exclusively at the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science. Prior to 2003 it was a one-year program followed by one year of practical experience.

Nurse/technician graduates of the school must apply for an official authorisation issued from the Norwegian Food Safety Authority (Mattilsynet) in order to use the title "Dyrepleier".[1]
