VAW Global Team Leader Fellowship

Build your resume with the VAW Global Team Leader Fellowship! This leadership opportunity is generally an 8-10 month intensive fellowship — valuable to future nurses, physicians, physician assistants, dentists, dental hygienists, veterinarians, veterinary technicians, as well as other future healthcare providers and anyone interested in gaining skills in public health while supporting healthcare systems around the world.
 
This pre-professional internship entails around 3-5 hours per week. It is a truly enriching experience that will provide you with great skills for professional life, such as learning about healthcare in a global context, gaining effective leadership and communication skills, acquiring international and public health work experience, and attending several orientations and workshops focused on personal development and cultural sensitivity. 

The compensation model is based on a flexible commission structure rather than hourly wages or fixed salaries. This approach reflects the varying workloads among our team leaders, who may be managing anywhere from 5 to 75 students, for example. The compensation rates are designed to fairly compensate for the different levels of responsibility and effort required to manage teams of different sizes. This ensures that those handling larger teams are appropriately rewarded for their increased workload.
 
Applications are open to all students, regardless of experience, class level, or major. This fellowship takes place as a hybrid role – partly on campus and partly remote.
