ABC is NAVTA-Approved!

Animal Behavior College has earned approval from the National Association of Veterinary Technicians of America (NAVTA) for our comprehensive Veterinary NAVTA-ApprovedAssistant Program. The approval process is quite rigorous and takes over a year to accomplish which is why so few schools actually achieve this designation.

ABC is one of only 31 schools that had merited this distinction in the United States. Of the 31 schools, there are only three online programs that can boast this achievement. ABC is proud to be among this group. NAVTA approval is highly respected in the veterinary community.  Upon completion of our NAVTA-approved program, graduates will have earned the privilege and opportunity to take NAVTA's national test and become an Approved Veterinary Assistant (AVA).2
