Summer Work and Travel Program

Summer Work and Travel Program

The Summer Work & Travel USA Program is founded on the Smith-Mundt Act of 1948, which laid the groundwork for U.S. exchange visitor programs. Before being introduced to mainland China, the program had already operated successfully for over 60 years in Europe, the Americas, and various Asian countries and regions. Each year, approximately 150,000 students worldwide participate in this program, using their summer vacation to work at U.S. companies under a J-1 visa for a three-month cultural exchange and practical training period, followed by up to one month of travel. Participants gain first-hand experience of American society, culture, and customs while improving their English and expanding their global perspective. A unique feature of this program is that it allows college students from around the world to work side-by-side with American peers and other international participants. All students are legally employed, receive the same wages as their American coworkers, and are covered by medical and accident insurance. Supervised by the U.S. government, the program not only enhances students’ professional and language skills but also helps reduce the financial burden of experiencing life in the United States.

Intern/Trainee Program USA

Intern/Trainee Program USA

The Trainee category is governed by regulations in [22 CFR 62.22]. This program helps exchange visitors improve their professional skills through structured training in the U.S., focusing on American methods and expertise. Training must not repeat previous experience. The program cannot be used for regular employment, and trainees cannot replace regular employees. Recent rule updates removed the “specialty” and “non-specialty” occupation distinction, created a new internship program, and updated participation criteria. Sponsors must vet and sign agreements with any third parties helping with recruitment and training. A completed Form DS-7002 (Training/Internship Placement Plan) is required before issuing Form DS-2019. Flight training rules remain unchanged.
