Add Your Credential to the PPAB Transfer Matrix

What Is the PPAB Transfer Matrix?

When an individual who already holds a credential awarded by another organization applies for a Pet Professional Accreditation Board (PPAB) credential, they consult the PPAB Credential Transfer Matrix to determine whether their current credential can be transferred to their chosen PPAB credential and what additional items they may need to submit. If a credentialing organization is not listed in the matrix, it is because no one has applied to have that specific credential added yet, or a previous application has not been deemed to meet the minimum criteria.

How to Add Your Credential to the Matrix

Whether you are an individual or a credentialing organization, if your credential is not currently in the Transfer Matrix, we invite you to add it!

It’s easy—a representative from the credentialing organization simply needs to complete a Credential Transfer Application. If you are an individual looking to get your credential added to the matrix, please ask the credentialing organization to complete the application by copying the form’s URL and pasting it into an email.

Once we receive the application, the PPAB team will conduct a preliminary review. If the organization meets our fundamental eligibility requirements, we will invite the organization to complete the longer application form, which asks for more detail about their current program or assessment criteria, what is tested and to what standard, how it is tested, and who is responsible for testing it.
