World Heritage International Student Exchange Program is seeking representatives to work with volunteer host families and international exchange students in the community.
World Heritage provides academic year and semester exchange programs in the United States for high school students from around the world. Students are 15 to 18 years of age, have passed a series of academic and character requirements and are awaiting an opportunity to embark on their American adventure. World Heritage representatives have the opportunity to support American high school students during this transformative year abroad.
Area representatives recruit and screen prospective host families, supervise the exchange students in their community throughout the year and interview American students who wish to spend a semester, year or summer abroad. Area representatives are compensated based on the number of students they are supervising, including opportunities to earn bonuses.
World Heritage’s primary goal is to contribute to international understanding by enabling students to learn about other languages and cultures through active participation in family, school and community life. World Heritage area representatives are the cornerstone of the organization, making all of this possible.
For more information about World Heritage or becoming an area representative, call the World Heritage office at 1 (800) 888-9040, email at info@world-heritage.org or go to www. world-heritage.org to learn more.
