We're here for you
The biggest reward for our leaders is the impact they have on each student’s life. We believe the best leaders are motivated to become involved with People to People in order to give their students an extraordinary, life-changing experience.
Leader trainings are an important part in developing our leaders and programs. Leaders work closely with one of our Program Advisors who support your recruiting efforts, pre-departure preparations, and on-program experience. We now also offer special small group training seminars for our leaders both domestically and internationally.
We offer a 5:1 free place ratio on all programs over 14 days and a 6:1 free place ratio for all of our programs under 13 days.
We understand a good night’s rest is essential while chaperoning student travelers, so we are happy to provide our leaders with a single room upgrade for free.
Being prepared for both the expected and unexpected is important, so we are happy to offer all of our leaders free travel insurance.
Your classroom will be invited to join People to People International’s School and Classroom Program. We will connect your class to an international class of students the same age, and give you the resources, projects and connections to create a modern-day “pen-pal” program to help support the development of globally-minded and culturally competent students.
Testimonials
"One of my favorite reasons for being a People to People International Travel Programs Leader is to see the personal growth and global awareness each student achieves by the end of their program and let's not forget all of the lifelong friendships they form with their fellow travelers but also with the locals they meet along the way."
