Global Experiences’ International Programs Aid Students with University Credit and Unrivaled Cultural Experiences

International education provider Global Experiences has partnered with Eastern Washington University to enable students to receive university level credit for studying, interning, and volunteering abroad.

Alexandria, VA (PRWEB) November 10, 2005 -- International education provider Global Experiences and Eastern Washington University have joined forces to provide students with the opportunity to receive university credit for their experiences abroad.

Global Experiences offers “travel with purpose” programs to students and young professionals in over 15 countries worldwide. Programs include foreign language training, international internships, volunteer abroad and teaching English as a foreign language certification courses.

“Traveling with a purpose, such as an international internship, is so important in the world today. It allows one to not only see something new, but to immerse oneself in a culture both personally and professionally,” states Global Experiences co-founder Emily Merson.

In addition to the résumé boost received from studying, interning and volunteering internationally, students enrolled in these programs now have the option of receiving an academic transcript from Eastern Washington University.

These university level independent study courses are designed to encourage participants to delve deeper into their international experience by keeping an academic travel journal, preparing photo essays and presenting a brief report about their international experience. Once completed, credits for the Global Experiences program are fully transferable to the student’s home college or university.
