Dear aspirant....!!

The Wildlife Society requires applicants to hold a bachelor's degree in a subject related to wildlife biology. They have specific requirements regarding the type of courses taken in the degree program. The majority of courses should be from the areas of wildlife biology and management, botany, ecology, and zoology. Another important area is communication, which includes courses in English composition and public speaking. Courses include topics in administration, law, and policies that are specific to wildlife biology and management. These courses are found in a wildlife biology degree program.

Success Tip:

Earn experience by volunteering or interning. Interning doesn't count towards the five-year experience requirement needed for the Wildlife Society certification. Instead, an internship is a good way to show potential employers you've been exposed to a wildlife biologist's job. Professional references for future jobs can be obtained through volunteering and interning.

The Wildlife Society offers associate certification to candidates with a bachelor's degree. Candidates who receive the associate wildlife biologist certification demonstrate professionalism and ethical behavior. The certification lasts for up to ten years after it's awarded. During this time, associate certification holders should acquire more experience and apply to become a Certified Wildlife Biologist before the associate certification expires.

Hope your query is solved!

All the best!
