We are located in the Chilcotin Ark, a unique place for nature and wildlife due to the diverse combination of ecosystems. At Chilcotin Holidays, we believe a Practicum should be more than just a line item on your resume - it should be a life-changing experience profoundly expanding your vision of who you can be and what you can accomplish. In all of our Practicums, we challenge our interns to clearly identify and continuously re-evaluate their interests, goals, and purpose.
