How WiWit verifies opportunities
Every opportunity on WiWit is checked against the organizer's official source before it appears. Here is how we check, what "verified" means, and how listings stay current.
Checked against official sources
Before a listing is published, its eligibility, dates, fees and benefits are checked against the organizer's own website or official announcement.
Reviewed before publishing
Every opportunity passes through a structured review in our content system before it goes live. Listings that cannot be confirmed against a credible source are not published. We do not list anything we could not check.
Kept up to date
Dates shift, new editions open, old ones close. Listings are re-checked as organizers announce new dates, and each page shows where the edition stands: registration open, registration closed, or the last edition.
What "verified" means on WiWit
A verified listing is one whose details we confirmed against a credible, official source at the time of review. It is not an endorsement, and it does not guarantee a place. Eligibility and selection are always decided by the organizer, and your child applies or registers on the organizer's own website. WiWit is free for parents.
Frequently asked questions
Who checks the opportunities listed on WiWit?
WiWit does, before a listing is published. Each one is reviewed against the organizing body's own official website or announcement, and anything that cannot be confirmed against a credible source is not published.
Does WiWit charge organizations to be listed?
No. Organizations pay nothing to appear on WiWit. Nothing on the site is a paid placement, so a listing appearing here is never a sign that WiWit was paid to show it.
What happens when an opportunity's dates change?
Listings are re-checked as organizers announce new dates. When a new edition is announced, its dates are added to the listing. Once an edition is over, the page shows it as the last edition until the next one is announced.
What should I do if a listing looks wrong?
Tell us and we will check it against the organizer's official source again. Use the contact form on wiwitness.com/contact. Because eligibility and selection are always decided by the organizer, their own website is the final word on any detail.
