FAQ'S

Will a non-science or non-animal science tertiary qualification meet the prerequisite?

Unfortunately a non-animal science based university or college qualification does not meet the prerequisite for this course. You will need to show evidence of knowledge in animal care or animal studies.

Examples of tertiary qualifications that will NOT meet the prerequisite include:

  • Bachelor of Arts
  • Bachelor of Psychology
  • Bachelor of Education
  • Bachelor Health Sciences
  • Bachelor of Information Technology
  • Bachelor of Law
  • Bachelor of Commerce.

Please refer to our the FAQ ‘What other animal science related qualifications are relevant and are deemed equivalent to the Certificate II in Animal Care?‘ for qualifications that do qualify for recognition.
