Its purpose is to increase mutual understanding between people of the U.S. and people of other countries by means of educational and cultural exchange. Participating in our program has many advantages: you will receive on-the-job training, acquire new skills, build your resume, experience a new culture and make new friends! Cultural exposure is an important element of our program and we recommend that you participate in a variety of cross-cultural activities.
