UWIAA local Chapter members host the students (providing accommodation and food).

Alumni Apprentice Programme (AAP): A three to six week overseas summer internship/apprenticeship programme for UWI students, designed to expose the students to the cultural, professional and social fabric of the host country. The UWIAA host Chapter is responsible for locating the internship opportunity and members host the students (providing accommodation and food).
