Educators Abroad (COE)

Study Abroad

Travel with Educators Abroad for two weeks during the summer in Europe

Tentative 2024 Dates May 20 - June 1 | Optional independent travel at the end of the two-week program

Educators Abroad is the perfect opportunity to experience European cities and culture that will broaden your perspective on the world.

Effective teachers, counselors, and leaders see the bigger picture and this approximately 2-week stay in European cities and countryside allows you to meet people, learn languages, see amazing sites, and visit schools. You will borrow from these experiences for years to come as you share your memories and insights with your students. You don’t really understand where you’re from until you’ve journeyed somewhere else. This is a gift you can share with your students, clients, and colleagues once you’ve experienced the journey yourself!

This trip will change your perspective—and life. Join others with like minds and become a global citizen. And, invite your friends!
