Is Animal Behavior College legit?
Yes. The school is registered in California and has been in business for several decades. Animal Behavior College was one of the earliest online dog training programs in the country; we first began offering dog training in 1998. We have a long, successful track record of training students for work in a variety of animal careers. Founder Steve Appelbaum was previously the owner and president of Animal Behavior and Training Associates, Inc., the largest independent dog training company in the United States at the time. From the beginning, ABC was a groundbreaker in continuing vocational education, expanding to include cat training, dog grooming, vet assistant, zookeeper assistant, and aquarist programs. The combination of online learning and real-world externships allows students to enter the job market confident in their own knowledge and experience. The school has over 30,000 alumni, including the largest group of pet dog trainers in North America.

Is Animal Behavior College AVMA accredited?
The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) doesn’t accredit veterinary assistant programs which is the veterinary program that ABC offers. So, accreditation through the AVMA isn’t relevant for ABC based on the types of programs we offer. What is relevant is the National Association of Veterinary Technicians of America (NAVTA) as it is this organization that reviews and recognizes the best veterinary assistant programs in the nation. ABC is proud to share that we are only one of four online schools in the entire country whose veterinary assistant program is recognized and approved by NAVTA.
Are there Animal Behavior College reviews?
Yes! Animal Behavior College has been in business since 1998 and has over 30,000 graduates! Some of our graduate groups are among the largest in the nation. For example, ABC’s alumni group of dog trainer graduates is the biggest group of pet dog trainers in North America. Other programs like Animal Behavior College’s groomer and veterinary assistant program are extremely popular. In fact, ABC has over 14,800 veterinary assistant and groomer graduates. With this many people taking our programs it is only natural that there are reviews about Animal Behavior College. Check out Feefo for a good sampling from our graduates.
