Australian Wildlife
Conservation Training Course
 We
offer training courses for those people who dream of working
in the area of wildlife and who want to learn more about
wildlife. Through the cooperation of Queensland government
wildlife conservation and rescue services, and wildlife
parks, etc., the AJWCEF is able to provide more replete
training course content. At each of the cooperating
facilities, participants will be under the supervision of
veterinarians, rangers and animal carers who work at the
coal-face and learn about husbandry practices and assisting
in clinical treatment. Participants may also have to
opportunity to participate in animal tracking (tracking wild
animals by means of radio signals), an important element of
wildlife surveying and research.
 There
are three types of training course - introductory, advanced
and professional. Participants in the introductory course
will gain basic knowledge regarding a variety of Australian
animals, their protection and husbandry practices through
practical training and seminars. As such, even people with
little knowledge and practical experience can undertake this
course. The advanced course provides more in-depth knowledge
regarding captive breeding and protection of Australian
wildlife, particularly threatened species, as well as
practical experience in the rescue and rehabilitation of
injured animals and caring for orphaned wildlife, etc.
People who have completed the introductory course are
eligible to participate in the advanced training course, as
are those who already have relevant knowledge/experience of
an equivalent or higher level. Professional courses are held
specifically for veterinarians, zookeepers, etc., who
actually work with wildlife.
