About CIEE CIEE: the Council on International Educational Exchange is the leading U.S. non-governmental international education organization. Established in 1947, CIEE is a world leader in student exchange services. Our mission is “to help people gain understanding, acquire knowledge, and develop skills for living in a globally interdependent and culturally diverse world.” Each year, we help nearly 50,000 high school and university students as well as young professionals and educators grow personally and to develop their potential through participation in a wide variety of exchange programs across the globe. CIEE staff are highly trained and devoted to providing the highest level of service to our global partners and program participants. Inbound Programs to the U.S.The CIEE USA High School Program is a 5 or 10-month academic program that enables qualified international high school students to attend high school in the U.S. while living with a host family. Host families invite students into their homes to fully participate in all aspects of family and community life. CIEE presently has over 1,300 high school students from 55 different countries living in communities throughout the U.S. The CIEE Work & Travel USA Program makes it possible for international students to explore life in the United States by becoming more than tourists, experiencing life in the U.S. firsthand by working alongside U.S. citizens in temporary employment. CIEE has been designated by the U.S. State Department to administer this J-1 Visa program since 1969. The CIEE Intern/Trainee Program CIEE has supported more than 50,000 participants over the past 20 years in their endeavor to expand their knowledge and skills and to enhance their professional qualifications in the U.S. for nearly 20 years.

Educators can participate in summer International Faculty Development Seminars in 23 countries to increase their international awareness and transform their campuses and curricula. Every one of our U.S. specialists has studied or lived abroad. They can advise you how to choose a program that fits your needs. Our overseas staff members will help with any problem -- academic or personal. We approach our tasks aware of the great responsibility we are given to help mold tomorrow's citizens in a complex and fast-changing world.
