About UsWho we areIn 1972, a small group of Animal Health Technicians formed a professional group to provide professional guidance, recognition, and education to veterinary technicians and assistants in New Jersey. In 2008, the association became the AAVSB recognized veterinary technician credentialing organization within the state. Today’s NJVTA, a strong and progressive 501(C)3 non-profit organization, is the only organization in New Jersey dedicated to certified veterinary technicians as well as all members of the veterinary healthcare team. MissionThe mission of the NJVTA is to promote life-long learning for the veterinary healthcare team by providing professional development and continuing education opportunities; to promote quality, compassionate care to ensure the health and well being of all creatures, great and small; to continually strengthen the membership and grow professional relationships with other associations within the veterinary medical profession.
