"After completing the Young Biologist course, as well as the High School Volunteer Course, I felt more informed than ever. These courses were extremely enjoyable and allowed for maximum exposure to marine life- and ecosystems while at the Aquarium." - Two Oceans Aquarium Foundation Sea Turtle Clinic Coordinator, Razaan Keur
