Your People to People Student Ambassador journey starts locally.
Before Student Ambassadors embark on their program, students and families will join us for orientation meetings that prepare them for the journey. People to People Ambassador Programs holds four three-hour or six two-hour orientation meetings to introduce students and parents to their local delegation. Friendships often begin at these very first meetings, so students make connections locally before they travel and make more friends abroad.
In addition to introducing local delegation participants, these highly important orientation sessions:
- Teach families about the People to People Ambassador Program mission, including the importance of Ambassadorial behavior abroad.
- Educate students and families about the culture and history of destination countries.
- Provide students and parents detailed information about what program participants need to pack.
- Give delegates and their families the opportunity to review all air, land, and/or sea travel details.
- Allow everyone to review and discuss safety policies and procedures.
- Provide an opportunity to ask any other questions participants and their families may have about the journey.
