We are the Washington DC area chapter of ARPAS, the American Registry of Professional Animal Scientists. We were the first national chapter of ARPAS! You do not have to be a member of the national ARPAS society to join this chapter.

ARPAS, is an organization that provides certification of animal scientists through examination, continuing education, and commitment to a code of ethics and disseminates applied scientific information through publication of the peer-viewed journal The Professional Animal Scientist.

For additional information or to become a certified animal scientist, visit the national site (http://www.arpas.org/) or contact our board of directors through this site.
