What are the responsibilities and job description for the High School Exchange Program Coordinator position at Education Travel & Culture?
ETC Local Coordinators (LCs) work closely with high school exchange students, host families, and local high schools. LCs are actively involved in the recruitment of volunteer host families for our international high school students coming for a school year through the U.S. State Department student visa program.
LCs keep in regular monthly contact with host families and students, complete monthly online progress reports, mediate conflicts between host family and student should they arise and help to find a resolution, assist both the student and host family with the adjustment process and monitor the students’ progress in school, providing assistance as necessary.
This is a part-time independent contractor position which enables you to work at home and within your own schedule. The Local Coordinator position is family-friendly, flexible, and complements a busy schedule. LCs work approximately 10-12 hours per month depending on how many families they recruit and students they oversee. Personal monthly contact with students is required.
**This position provides supplemental income ONLY** No immediate income is provided until host families are recruited and students placed.
