Faculty Site Visits

Experience and learn the rewards of our programs for yourself!

Site Visits are the perfect opportunity for faculty and administrators to experience our programs first-hand before sending their students abroad. Our international team will meet you at the airport and you tour around the country while you get to see behind-the-scenes of our international non-profit. During your Site Visit, we will engage you in community service projects, educational workshops, cultural learning and tourist activities. The program includes all airfare, food, lodging, transport and advertised activities.

Take advantage of the opportunity for professional development while experiencing the rewards of our high-impact international programs and returning home with a sense of confidence and purpose to promote a future Kambia program at your university or college!
