New England Council member, University of New England, will now offer online coursework and certification in animal behavior. 

The six-week course investigates animal communication, interaction, and adaptation. The program builds upon UNE’s Bachelor of Science degree program in animal behavior and prepares students for careers in veterinary medicine, animal rehabilitation, animal-assisted therapy, and wildlife conservation. The course incorporates foundational concepts, developmental influences, behavioral abnormalities, learning theories, and species-specific considerations and career opportunities within the field.  

“We will dive into the captivating world of pet body language and beyond, transforming your interactions with animals into deeper, more rewarding experiences,” said course developer and instructor Christine Calder.  

The New England Council congratulates the University of New England for this exciting new curriculum.
