As a prospective institution, I want to understand the initial requirements and benefits of EAZA membership. Summarize the main benefits of joining, outline the general requirements an institution must meet to qualify, and specifically describe who is eligible for Associate Membership, based only on the 'Become an EAZA Member' page.
Navigate directly to the 'Become an EAZA Member' page. Identify and list at least three primary benefits of EAZA membership from the visible content. Locate and summarize the general criteria or requirements for an institution to become an EAZA member, as presented on the page. Identify and describe who is eligible for 'Associate Membership' based on the information provided on the page.
Successfully navigate to the 'Become an EAZA Member' page. Accurately list at least three primary benefits of EAZA membership (e.g., prestige, access to conferences, EEPs, Executive Office support, discounted courses, Member Area, accreditation). Summarize the general requirements for an institution to qualify for EAZA membership, specifically mentioning reviewing key policies/standards, being a member of Species360, and recording animals in ZIMS. Correctly state that 'Associate Membership' can be granted to zoos and aquariums outside Europe/Western Asia, as well as to national zoo associations and other organizations related to education, conservation, or zoo staff. Do not attempt to navigate to external documents or broken links to find information.
