Organizations That Certify Phlebotomists

One of the most helpful and necessary things phlebotomists can do to stay informed and connected is to become certified and join a professional association that is reputable and provides meaningful certification.

Below is a list of the top three nationally recognized health career associations for phlebotomists (and other related health careers). These organizations are well known, well established and respected. They offer membership benefits and continuing education opportunities, are in good standing with the Better Business Bureau, and meet national approval standards:
