This course has been a game-changer for me. I've always been fascinated by raccoons, and this undergraduate certificate in Zoo Raccoon Husbandry from Stanmore School of Business gave me the practical skills I needed to turn that passion into a career. The course materials were top-notch, and the hands-on training in animal behavior, feeding, and habitat management was invaluable. I'm now volunteering at a local zoo, and I couldn't be happier with my decision to take this course.

As a mature student returning to education, I was a bit nervous about starting a course in Zoo Raccoon Husbandry. However, the staff at Stanmore School of Business couldn't have been more supportive. The course content was engaging and informative, and the practical skills I gained were directly applicable to my role as a volunteer at a local wildlife trust. I particularly enjoyed the units on veterinary care and disease prevention, which gave me a deeper understanding of the health challenges that raccoons can face in captivity. Highly recommend!
