How Do You Become a Zookeeper?

Zookeeper School Certification Tuition

How do you become a zookeeper? If you want to turn your passion for animals into a career, becoming a zookeeper might sound like the obvious choice. However, the time and expense of earning a bachelor’s degree in life sciences like biology or zoology put a zookeeper career out of reach for many people. Don’t give up on your dream of working with animals in a zoo, though. Zookeeper assistant tuition is affordable and you can complete your certification online in approximately 8 months.

If you want to work in a zoo, starting out as a zookeeper assistant can launch your career. Getting certified through a zookeeper assistant school can give you a leg up in the hiring process. ABC’s Zookeeper Assistant Program tuition ranges from $1,995 USD $1,795 USD to $2,695 USD, depending on your payment arrangement.

Tuition covers:

  • All required digital study materials
  • A Program Manager to support you in your Zookeeper Assistant Course
  • Lifetime ABC Certified Zookeeper Assistant (ABCZA) certification upon
    successful completion
  • ABC Alumni Benefits for registered graduates
