If a client has any special skills or experience (for example, waitress experience in their own country, a sales position in retail, or a ski instructor), then there are more opportunities for them!
We have numerous locations throughout British Columbia and Alberta. At all Resort locations, English Bay College teachers are onsite to teach classes, monitor the Internship, and offer ongoing support.
Vancouver Internship Program
What is an international internship?
An international internship is a supervised practical training for students and professionals at a host company that allows students to link classroom learning to workplace experience, including first hand exposure to Canadian business culture, as well as real world opportunities for practising Business English in their respective industry.
How does it work?
While studying Business English at our partner school, we will arrange a host company for you that will allow you to link classroom learning to workplace experience.Your internship is a monitored work experience related to your academic field of study or previous work experience, and meeting specific learning goals.
Example: 8 weeks Business English and Workplace Preparation Training and 8 weeks of an unpaid internship at a Canadian company. Students can start the Vancouver Internships Program at any time during the year. We have weekly intake dates.

WHY CHOOSE VANCOUVER?
Vancouver was voted the "Best City in the Americas" for 2004 and 2005 by Condé Nast Traveler magazine, based on the categories of ambience, friendliness, culture and sites, restaurants, lodging, and shopping. This is just one of our city's many awards and accolades that clearly demonstrate the many reasons to visit Vancouver!
Vancouver is a dynamic, multicultural city set in a spectacular natural environment. No matter what time of the year you visit, there are indoor and outdoor activities to please adults, families, couples and friends to no end. As the proud host of the 2010 Olympic & Paralympic Winter Games, Vancouver looks ahead to ongoing growth and great success in tourism, hospitality and business services each year.
Consider just a few reasons why you should plan a trip to Vancouver:
Olympic City - The International Olympic Committee selected Vancouver as the Host City for the XXI Winter Games. Athletes and spectators from around the world will gather in Vancouver and the alpine resort of Whistler in 2010 to celebrate the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. Selected for its beauty, accessibility, unlimited services and activities, Vancouver looks forward to hosting the world!
Spectacular & Safe Setting - Majestic mountains, sparkling ocean, rainforests and beautiful foliage all four seasons makes Vancouver one of the most beautiful cities in the world.
