Our Local Coordinators are men and women who believe that student exchange is a life changing experience for young people and the host families within the local community. As a Local Coordinator, you will assist with recruiting and interview potential host families. You will provide ongoing support to these families and students to ensure that the exchange experience is a success for everyone as well as interviewing local students wishing to go on exchange overseas. If you are interested in becoming a Local Coordinator, please register below, and our team will be in contact with you to discuss further:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
