Short-term study abroad programs with long-term impact
Our approach to faculty-led programs and short-term study abroad is in our name – Custom. Our built-from-scratch international experiences are fine-tuned to the learning outcomes and unique logistical needs of our partners at universities around the world. Like a fingerprint, each global program is different – and our capabilities across 110+ countries are unmatched.

Designing Your Custom Program
We believe this kind of learning experience demands a unique travel itinerary, and that’s why we specialize in customized travel programs. Whether its J-term, spring break, May-mester, etc., our program development team, alongside our Global Academic Team, will consult with you to translate your curriculum into a one-of-a-kind learning experience that will deliver the educational outcome you’re looking for. From selecting your destination to identifying interactive experiences that bring your classroom to life, our thematic approach ensures that your goals drive every decision we make together.
A Personal Partner
Once your program is developed, you’ll work directly with an account manager who will be your champion, working directly with our large team of logistical experts, curriculum specialists, and on-the-ground partners. Our long-time university partners see their account managers as an integral part of their own university teams, ensuring that your program is uniquely yours each and every year.
