My facility is currently an Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) or Canadian Association of Zoos and Aquariums (CAZA) accredited member, does that mean it is automatically accredited with ZAA?
To be considered ZAA accredited, your facility must first apply for ZAA facility membership (Private, Public or Educational). Upon facility membership approval, you should request an application for ZAA accreditation. The application fee for accreditation is non-refundable at $200. Along with your ZAA accreditation application, you must submit your latest accreditation report from either AZA or CAZA (whichever organization your facility is accredited with) to be considered for ZAA accreditation.
