CIEE’s best-in-class Health, Safety, and Security team is continues to monitor the local pandemic conditions at all our sites, we are actively practicing “COVID smart” behaviors to ensure the safety of students, staff and the communities in which they operate.

CIEE has expanded the lens for assessing risk to include a multitude of inputs and indicators that better inform our senior leadership team on the relative safety of supporting students and staff in a particular region, country, and city. The CIEE Health Risk Index is one variable for assessment and is calculated using multiple metrics derived from multiple sources such as WHO, Johns Hopkins, Worldometer, Centers for Disease Control, and our own analytical tools.
