Future Association Leader Program - Application Form

Future Association Leader Program

Application Form
Thank you for your interest in the WSAVA Future Association Leader Program. This program has been developed to identify, support, and prepare emerging veterinary association leaders from across WSAVA’s global community. Through a one-year blended learning journey, participants will gain practical skills, confidence, and global perspectives to strengthen their associations and the wider profession.

Participation in the program is based on a competitive application process. Selection is made according to the published criteria, with the aim of creating a diverse, inclusive, and balanced cohort of future leaders.

Before you begin, please note that your application cannot be submitted without uploading two mandatory documents:
1. A letter of nomination or endorsement from your WSAVA Member Association
2. Your resume/CV
If you do not have these documents ready, we recommend that you wait and return once you do. In the meantime, you may view all the application questions here, so that you can draft your responses in advance.

If you have any questions, please contact futureleader@wsava.org
