Send an e-mail to jeffv@ctgaofbc.com which we will forward to our new Members Only Job Postings section. E-Mail Note: Due to the high volume of 'junk mail' or 'spam,' sometimes a true e-mail will not make it to our Inbox; if you have not had a reply from us within three or four days, please either re-send it or leave us a voice mail with your name and number at 604-876-2576 (10 am to 8 pm Pacific Time). Also, make sure your e-mail's subject line mentions this website, a job offer, or a guiding or tourism related topic. Your message should contain as much information as possible about the position and dates that you are trying to fill. Be sure to leave your phone number and/or an e-mail address with a contact name. Please allow a few days for all of our members to have a chance to check for messages. The more lead time you can provide for your notice the better. Our Members Only section has brought our members to a closer point of contact with each other, especially during the busy season when we can't hold meetings or events, but we can still get to a computer or telephone to check for messages. All of our Members speak English, plus many speak a multitude of languages from around the world including Chinese, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Malay, Portuguese, Spanish and Swiss.

While the CTGA of BC is a Professional Association, representing many Tour Guides and Tour Directors, we are unable to make specific recommendations about any one individual and/or business as we are not an employment agency. Members are expected to operate and behave in a professional manner, but the Association cannot be held responsible nor liable for the quality or conduct of any Member. Our Members do participate in our numerous meetings, fam (familiarization) trips and educational gatherings to constantly improve and up-grade their many skills. All of our Members work as employees or as independents on a free-lance basis for anyone who needs group-handling services. This also includes conventions, incentive tours, or special interest groups or individuals, etc. Arrangements for any specific employment conditions, if needed, and for remuneration will be made by each of our Members.
