“Of the three major commitments I've made to post-grad certifications, the CRI course is undoubtedly the best organized and most conducive to learning. The course will be highly relevant to my daily practice. I'm stoked to see how much more effective I'll be at helping my patients enjoy life."
–Carla Wilkie, DVM, CVA, CVC, West Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada


“CRI gave me the skills I needed to apply my human physical therapy experience to our canine rehabilitation practice. The classroom lectures combined with hands-on labs were invaluable."
–Amy Kramer, PT, DPT, CCRT, Santa Monica, California

Welcome to Canine Rehabilitation Institute!

Canine Rehabilitation Institute, Inc. provides veterinary and physical therapy professionals with top-notch training in canine rehabilitation. Classes are small and learning is hands-on with dogs on site providing real-life lessons in anatomy and biomechanics. Our instructors are recognized leaders in their fields — and they love to teach. They have also managed busy referral practices so they understand the business as well as the science of canine rehabilitation.

Certification Programs and Continuing Education Courses
We offer two certification programs: Certified Canine Rehabilitation Therapist (CCRT) for veterinarians and physical therapists, and Certified Canine Rehabilitation Veterinary Nurse (CCRVN), formerly called Certified Canine Rehabilitation Assistant, for veterinary technicians/nurses. Since CRI was founded in 2002, we have certified more than 1,000 students from 30 countries.

We hold our certification modules in convenient locations in Florida and Colorado. We have also taught in countries around the world including Australia, Europe, and the United Kingdom. We also offer a variety of continuing education opportunities year-round. Check out the CRI calendar for upcoming courses.
