Each person in training who is registered with ACVB is to notify ACVB yearly that they are continuing to make progress in the program. This form must be completed by January 1 of each year. Failure to do so will result in removal from the list of registered
trainees, removal of resident website access, and the need to re-register and submit a proposed program (for those in an Individual Behavior Residency Training Program).
ACVB Policy on the Use of “Resident”
An “ACVB Resident” is a person who has:
- Registered with ACVB, and
- In an ACVB-approved Institutional Residency Program
- In an ACVB-approved Individual Behavior Residency Training Program
Once the person has completed their residency program, or has been notified by ACVB that their Individual Behavioral Residency Training program is complete, or dropped out of either type of program, they may no longer call themselves a “resident.”
Proper identification for business cards would be:
- ACVB resident in private practice training
- ACVB resident at XXX University
- ACVB resident in the Military Behavioral Residency Program
