Upon completion of #1 and #2, all applicants who are residents of the United States, Canada and Mexico are required to attend one of the several Applicant Information Meetings (AIM) scheduled during the Spring Semester. Applicants from other countries are encouraged to attend, but attendance is not mandatory. The applicant is encouraged to invite anyone they choose to also attend this meeting. Recommended General Education Courses Due to the time requirements of the program and because many of the occupational opportunities in the animal field require a Bachelor’s degree, it is strongly recommended that all applicants complete as many transferable general education requirements as possible prior to entering the program. The following courses meet the remaining Moorpark College general education requirements for the EATM Associate in Science degree. Recommended Courses......................................................Units Physical Science (Intro to Chemistry course or General Chemistry)............5.0 American History/Institution - U.S. History or US Government.....................3.0 Fine/Performing Arts (Beginning Acting or Photography)..........................3.0 Physical Education (Course of Choice ).........................................................1.5 To take maximum advantage of the unique opportunity with exotic animals that EATM offers, the applicant is encouraged to obtain a broad base of experience in caring for both domestic and exotic animals in a variety of job/volunteer situations prior to applying. Program Requirements and Ethical Expectations The EATM program prepares the student for employment in the animal industry, which often involves working with dangerous animals. During this course of study, the student will work with dangerous animals at the college’s teaching zoo, as well as other animal facilities. Therefore, students enrolled in the EATM program are expected to strictly adhere to the rules and regulations of the program in order to ensure the safety of the students, animals, staff, and public. Furthermore, all students are expected to maintain the highest personal and ethical standards of conduct consistent with professional standards as perceived by the program faculty and professional personnel at the facilities where students perform internships. Any information indicating that such standards are not maintained is subject to review by members of the faculty, which may recommend student dismissal to the college administration. For successful completion of the EATM program, a minimum grade of C is necessary in all courses required for the major. Because much of the EATM program is sequential in nature, a minimum grade of C in each required course must be obtained before continuing to the next semester. Performance Standards In compliance with the 1990 American with Disabilities Act, the EATM Program does not discriminate against qualified applicants with disabilities. These performance standards, reflected in specific EATM course/program objectives, are to assist each applicant in determining eligibility and the need for accommodations or modifications. The EATM Faculty in conjunction with the Moorpark College Health Services, ACCESS and community animal facilities will determine, on an individual basis, whether the necessary accommodations or modifications can reasonably be made. Critical Thinking - ability sufficient for safe judgment: calculating, reasoning, analyzing, prioritizing, and synthesizing data. Examples: identify cause/effect relationships in animal behavior and safety decisions. Interpersonal - the ability sufficient to interact with individuals, families, and groups with diverse social, emotional, cultural, and intellectual backgrounds; function effectively under stress. Examples: Establish rapport with the public, effectively interacting and working as a member of a team. Communication - abilities sufficient for effective verbal and written interactions. Examples: Explain animal behavior, teaching wildlife conservation, and document and interpret animal actions and animal responses. Mobility - sufficient to rapidly walk the entire length of America’s Teaching Zoo without interruption, run distances of 50 yards, maneuver in small confined spaces while reaching overhead objects.
