Certified Veterinary Assistants (CVAs) are team members who provide daily support to veterinarians and veterinary technicians with tasks ranging from patient care and animal handling to client communication and administrative support.
This certification option is open to individuals interested in veterinary medicine who meet the program’s eligibility requirements, including documented practical experience. To recognize professional achievement and support career development, successful CVA certification also includes membership in the Florida Veterinary Medical Association (FVMA).
Veterinary Practice Managers (VPMs) wear many hats as they work as financial managers, human resources directors, office administrators, and many other roles that ensure the long-term success of their clinic or hospital.
This membership option is open to any VPM with on-the-job training who is or has been employed as a veterinary hospital/practice/clinic manager, or any graduate of a veterinary practice management program.

This membership option is open to any ACT who has on-the-job training and has worked in the capacity of a technician for at least three years, or graduated from an American Veterinary Medical Association-accredited veterinary technology program but does not qualify for technician certification.
