Submitting this form creates your portal login, assigns your credential number, and opens your Generalist PET Track enrollment. A membership advisor will follow up by phone or email about membership.

About you, for your advisor.

This is an important section. Your advisor reads this to understand where you are starting and how to best support you.

Working in pet grooming now?

Required acknowledgments: before you submit.

Both must be checked. These are the only commitments at this stage.

Business invitation code (optional) If a pet grooming business gave you a code, enter it and we will ask them to confirm you. No code is fine. You can start your Track work now and attach to a business later. Until you are attached to a business, your profile stays private and practical work cannot be signed off on your record yet.

Program structure. I understand ACADA begins with the Generalist PET Track and that additional PET Tracks are opened only after the foundation is complete. Membership is arranged separately. I understand membership and payment are handled by phone or email with a membership advisor and are not collected through this website. Creating an account does not finalize your membership.

Address and business details are not needed now. You can add them from your member profile after you log in.
