Captive Primate Care Certificate

CWU undergraduate students or non-matriculated students are eligible to enroll in the proposed certificate program. Certificate coursework can be used toward other degree requirements (as applicable) except ANTH 201 Grade 1 Animal Technician (1 unit), which can only be counted toward the certificate. Completion of the certificate will provide students with all skills and experiences listed by the International Primatological Society for “Animal Technician,” and some skills and experiences listed for “Senior Animal Technician.” This expertise may assist students in future job searches in captive primate care based at zoos, sanctuaries, and/or laboratories.
