  • Description

    Our Canadian Internship Program offers a unique way in which to develop personal and career goals through work experience in many different areas of vocational study. The program aims to provide a means of improving practical skills in a professional environment, enhance employment opportunities within an increasingly competitive job market and increase awareness of international business and practical work experience. We organize placements which match the career and professional objectives of all our trainees.

  • WAVA's Mission Statement

    WAVA's Responsible Travel policy is its mission statement. It's not an ideology. It is not a cast-iron set of rigid guidelines and procedures. Rather, it is a spectrum of principles and concepts that promote co-operation and learning not only by those in the London office, but also with all other parties involved - travellers, partners and host communities - ensuring each can mutually benefit. We do our best to understand our travellers' needs, responsibly preparing them to have great experiences, and we produce content that accurately informs our travellers of what they can expect to encounter when abroad. To find out more about WAVA's Responsible Travel policy and principles, please visit WAVA's website.
