The ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (APCC) is the leading animal poison control call center in the nation. The APCC’s professional team supports veterinarians and pet owners 24/7 using a proprietary database containing over four million cases. The Center is committed to protecting and improving the lives of animals through promotion of poison prevention and publication of new findings. The APCC helps over 400,000 animals annually.
The Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) systematically gains toxicology knowledge through the APCC’s staged training and mentoring process.

The environment is team oriented and supportive to set CVTs up for success in this fast paced and challenging position. Our CVTs obtain a complete history, document exposure circumstances in the electronic medical record, calculate dosages, and use in-house protocols to either manage cases or to escalate cases to a veterinarian for further management. The CVT participates in other projects and events that are established to support APCC work, further education, and enhance communication within the ASPCA.
The ASPCA supports our staff with career development, and the CVT has multiple potential career paths including Senior CVT, People Manager, and others.
