Why Become a Local Coordinator?
A Job with Flexibility—Local Coordinators are contractors with a commission paid per student for the required services being completed. You earn extra income by networking in your own community. You determined hours and income upon the number of students you choose to place in your community.

Improve Your Community—While in America, students engage in leadership and service activities that enrich your community and allow them to gain skills to improve their country as program alumni upon returning home.
Aid the View of America Abroad— As a Local Coordinator, you will aid the US State Department in their mission to increase mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries through international exchange programs and thus help breakdown negative stereotypes of Americans abroad.
