Become A Member
Join the International Association of Animal Therapists
Membership of IAAT is open to all animal therapists, veterinary surgeons and nurses, and we also have a student membership option. Applicants should be the holder of, or a student on, a qualification in the relevant animal therapies.
We offer three types of memberships:
- IAAT Full Membership Subscription
For a full membership you need to be qualified in an Animal Therapy discipline to a UK level 3 (or equivalent) and above and show proof of your valid insurance. If you have any questions regarding this please contact us as we know this is not always straight forward. Your future payments will be taken automatically and you will receive an email to let you know 2 weeks prior to the renewal date so you can change this if required. You will need to complete 25 hours of CPD’s from any source during each full membership year. - IAAT Student (for students)
You need to be studying an Animal Therapy discipline or similar additional knowledge and give details of this when applying. - Non Practicing Membership (This can be useful if you would like to take a membership break for many reasons, e.g. ill-health, bereavement, maternity leave or anything similar. It can also work for members who would like to join our organisation for it’s benefits and facilities but are not currently practicing)
To become a member, you will need to complete an application process which includes:
- Sending us your details with documents to support your application using the form below
- Your application will be reviewed and if successful you'll be given further instructions including how to pay for your membership
- Online payment
If you’re already an IAAT member you will need to renew your membership each year. Please use this form to resubmit your up to date details, and after we have reviewed them, we will send you further instructions to pay for the renewal.
