We’re thrilled to announce the launch of our Career Pathways Program (CPP)!
The CPP establishes a robust framework for engaging students and emerging professionals who are passionate about conservation, wildlife, and climate action. The program offers a variety of work-based learning opportunities including co-ops, internships, postdoctoral fellowships, veterinary internships, and apprenticeships, allowing participants to gain meaningful, hands-on experience and explore diverse career paths in the field.
By building strong partnerships with educational institutions, our community partners and other organizations, CPP helps bridge the gap between learning and meaningful work experience, fostering the next generation of conservation leaders.
One of our signature programs under this umbrella is the Climate Action Learning & Leadership (CALL) Program, which is rooted in our commitment to EDIA and supports individuals from equity deserving communities in exploring careers in climate and conservation.
We strive to create “Wow for Good” for our Career Pathways participants, giving them an experience of a lifetime. Our interns and co-op students bring incredible talent, creativity, and passion for conservation. They’ve contributed to projects and initiatives that have been the start of something truly amazing. It’s inspiring to see them engage deeply with our work and, through it, inspire the world. It gives us immense joy to see them begin their journeys as with your Toronto Zoo.
At your Toronto Zoo, our mission is to connect people, animals, conservation science, and traditional knowledge to fight extinction, and our vision is a world where people, wildlife, and wild spaces thrive. The Career Pathways Program helps bring that vision to life — one opportunity at a time.
