At the Zoo Koki Foundation we believe that people with a vocation for animals should be able to train as guardians of biodiversity. That is why the Wildlife Academy exists: an online training platform with courses created from the experience of a zoological park and a wildlife recovery centre.

Today we offer two advanced courses. Each one is studied on our platform, zoo-koki.org, where you enrol and access all the content. The courses are taught in Spanish.
