Prepare Your Students for Today’s Interconnected World
More than a buzzword, “intercultural competence” is one of the top skills college admissions officers and employers look for in candidates. It’s also difficult to teach in a traditional classroom environment. By participating with peers in international exchange, high school students step outside their comfort zone, learn how to navigate across cultures, and open their mind to the world.
Every year, CIEE partners with high schools all around the country to promote international exchange at home and abroad. We place 1,000+ international students in local communities like yours and offer 2,500+ U.S. teens the opportunity to study abroad from three weeks to a year.
International exchange not only impacts a student’s future in a positive and lasting way. It can transform entire communities.
