<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846">WDC North America (NA), located in Plymouth, Massachusetts, offers internships and field volunteer positions providing research, policy, education, and advocacy
experience in working for an international non-profit organization. <b>We are currently seeking applicants to fill 1-2 positions for the fall 2019 season, beginning as early as August 1<sup>st</sup>. The deadline to apply is Tuesday, July 2<sup>nd</sup> at
11:59PM EDT.</b><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846">The WDC internship/volunteer program aims to help participants hone their outreach and data collection and organization skills, while also gaining an introduction
to all aspects of working with a conservation non-profit organization. Successful candidates are included in everything from field research to office administration. All interns gain experience with public speaking by interacting with passengers aboard whale
watching vessels and participating in school talks and other public outreach events throughout the year. Additionally, interns will assist with written communication efforts including social media, blogs, and supporter directed communications. Other potential
opportunities include attending workshops/conferences and responding to stranded marine mammals, though these are not guaranteed opportunities. This program exposes interns to real world experiences that will help them develop the skills and understanding
needed to succeed in the field of marine mammal conservation and research. Participants will gain an in-depth perspective of this field and a better understanding of where their interests lie. Through this internship, a number of skills are developed including
analytical, organizational, interpersonal, and communication skills.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846">As part of the field work experience, interns will learn species identification, behavioral sequencing, data collection, and photo identification research techniques
on marine mammals in the southern Gulf of Maine. They will also have the opportunity to go out on commercial whale watching boats several times per week (field season is April - October) to photograph and record sightings of humpback, finback, and minke whales,
as well as other notable marine wildlife. The frequency of fieldwork is weather dependent. Days in the office will be spent uploading photos and data into our photo identification database or working on any tasks that may be assigned.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846">There is no fee or compensation for the internship/volunteer positions. Participants must arrange for their own transportation to and from Plymouth and provide
their own food. Limited housing with a shared bedroom is available on site for a monthly fee of $300 USD, which is strictly to offset the cost of housing. Assistance can be provided in finding alternate housing at the request of the applicant, and those that
can provide their own housing are encouraged to apply.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";color:#253846">WDC is willing to help qualified students obtain credits for the program through their college or university. The program requires a minimum commitment of 12
weeks, with the possibility of extending the term on a case-by-case basis. The internship is a full time position requiring open and flexible availability. Applicants should make sure they clearly indicate their availability (specific dates, if possible) in
their cover letter. International applicants interested in the internship program must be able to secure their own travel Visa and other required documentation.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
