Best Practices in Animal Keeping covers the essentials
of animal keeping across all taxa.  The course focuses on the very
highest standards in animal husbandry, in combination with problem solving,
team building and interpersonal skills.  You will engage with professional
colleagues and apply what you learn back at your home institution.
The goal of this course is to motivate and retain animal care professionals
within our industry and to elevate the standards of animal care in AZA zoos and
aquariums.

In-class discussion, exchange of ideas with animal care colleagues, small group
activities, and question-and-answer sessions all enable students to analyze
trends, to think critically, to evaluate problems and propose solutions,
and to communicate effectively with other members of their
organization.
