On-site orientations occur in varying places based on programme location, we review the following in every orientation:

Local customs, culture and resources

Recognizing Culture Shock and how to manage this

Conduct and Ambassadorship while abroad

Health and Safety/Emergency Protocols/International Health Insurance

Program specifics and itinerary review (housing, meals, field trips etc.)

Day to day needs (Food, Money/Banking, Transportation)

Communication with staff, electronic sources and mobile phones

Orientation is a great way for participants to meet their Learn International in-country support team, real-life details about their host country and most importantly, how to be safe on their study abroad experience. All students must attend our in-country orientation, there are no exceptions.
