Help the Industry Grow!

NAVTA approved Veterinary Technician Specialty Academies must perform an industry skills task analysis periodically to ensure industry standards are maintained and credentialed veterinary technicians being appropriately utilized in clinical practice and academic venues. The Academy of Physical Rehabilitation Veterinary Technicians seeks your help in review of the advanced skills list, including updating of new technologies or therapeutics used in veterinary physical rehabilitation and sports medicine. The essential list of skills are used during a candidates application process to ensure credentialed veterinary technicians applying for a VTS in Physical Rehabilitation uphold and exceed the high standards of the Academy and all VTS's recognized by NAVTA. International review and all feedback from fellow colleagues is encouraged!
