Ever wonder what your students are experiencing abroad?
Each year KEI arranges low-cost evaluation visits to our program locations so that study abroad advisors and academic faculty gain a better understanding and familiarity of our programs.
Participants have the opportunity to explore the host city and culture, tour the campus, observe classes, become acquainted with KEI On-Site Staff, professors and administrators, visit housing facilities and speak with current participants.
Participating in a KEI evaluation visit will enable you to offer advice based on first-hand experience.
You will be better equipped to decide which students will benefit from the program, and which options (courses, internships, etc.) are best suited for each student.
