Onsite Support

One of the many ways our students benefit from The CEA Difference, is through our enthusiastic and experienced onsite staff members who live year-round in our destination cities. These highly trained program administrators have developed successful relationships with our academic institutions and know how students will get the most from their time abroad.

In fact, recently, 94% of CEA students agreed that their onsite staff met or exceeded their expectations.

What does this mean for you?

During your time abroad, the CEA City Director will:

• Be available to assist you with any difficulties or questions which may arise
• Help you make a smooth transition into the local culture
• Conduct an extensive orientation session to provide you with the information you need and want to know to prepare yourself for a fulfilling experience
• Act as a liaison between you and the administration of the host institution, assisting with onsite course registration and other academic issues
• Closely monitor your academic progress
• Organize a wide range of social and cultural activities
• Provide a local perspective on additional travel and immersion opportunities in your host country
• Take a personal interest and concern for your well-being

By offering diverse opportunities, academic and cultural guidance and a welcoming environment, these program experts help to form the foundation of the bridge which can effectively connect a student from the US or Canada with his temporary home abroad, enabling the student to forge the new understanding, friendships and knowledge essential to becoming a global citizen.
