Partners throughout the journey…
We share the same goals
Internationalize your classroom and increase your students’ understanding through hand-crafted experiences related to your coursework.
Together as partners, we create custom short or long-term programs for your undergraduate or graduate level students that are based on your learning objectives. Whether you are starting a new endeavor or have been running a program for years, we can take care of all your study abroad needs.
Our mission is to enable faculty leaders to focus on their teaching and field of expertise, while we focus on what we do best – tailoring the logistics and excursions to complement the coursework. By working together, we can develop everything that is needed for an outstanding, culturally immersive, and safe program.
“I’ve never found a company as willing to be as flexible and responsive to faculty wishes when designing a custom study abroad program as CEPA has; it is the strongest reason I keep coming back to you for these programs.”
“We thought that, overall, the work CEPA did this year was excellent. The hotel was amazing- everyone thought it was spacious, located close to so many things. It was great working with you- thank you for all your hard work on this course.”
“I have been working with CEPA since 2018, and the experience has been uniformly excellent! I have led study-abroad programs for my university (UC San Diego) in Geneva and Bern in Switzerland, and Reykjavik, Iceland; the team at CEPA has been a valued and trusted partner. Our collaboration has been professional, courteous, and expertly-managed.
“I’ve been fortunate to work with CEPA since 2015. In that time, every person I’ve interacted with at CEPA—from the program directors, in-country travel coordinators, and senior leadership—has been the utmost professional and focused on making my students and my experience positive and enjoyable. Over the years, my program and itinerary have changed based on student feedback, with input from me as the faculty lead, and with the guidance and support from the team at CEPA. They have followed up on my requests and have often proposed alternative visits and tours that I didn’t know existed. They really are partners in this process, and I find their input invaluable in delivering unique experiences for my students. The word “customized” is in their name, and in my experience, they live up to the billing as my program is not only customized each year but also cultivated and curated. What more could you ask for from a travel provider?”
“CEPA is a provider we have worked with successfully and will continue to partner with on future programs for many great reasons. They value international education just as much as we do. They offer comprehensive quality support, keep programs affordable, prioritize health and safety, and have excellent follow up and follow through. Their staff is excellent, and they take great care in learning more about what went well and what could be improved after the program. We love CEPA!”
„It was a wonderful experience for all of us. Several of the students have stopped by my office or texted me since our return. They are just bubbling over with enthusiasm and excitement. It has truly been life changing for all of us. I look forward to more of these adventures with the staff at CEPA.”
“Honestly, when I started this course I had a bad experience with another provider and was resistant to using one. I was told CEPA was good last year and thought I’d give you a try. I have been EXTREMELY SATISFIED with the high quality work you do, the processes, your preparation, and how we keep it affordable for students. I am thankful for your work and doubt this trip would happen with anyone else.”
