The opportunity for Australians to combine travel and education has never been greater. CISaustralia provides students with unprecedented global learning opportunities – cultural immersion, stepping out of your comfort zone, experiencing new sights, tastes and sounds. This is what real life learning is all about – and it is what makes CISaustralia staff love what we do.
Our progressive and dynamic team is made up of staff from around the world: our management and program team here in Australia and the USA – and our On-Site Directors (students’ in-country support network). We truly can support our participants (students) during their entire overseas experience.
CISaustralia was established in 2013 and has 75+ staff and representatives globally, including on-site support staff, host representatives and a multitude of additional overseas partners. CISaustralia has hosted over 7,000+ students across the full range of its internationally focused programs. CISaustralia offers a diverse and comprehensive range of programs, including overseas, domestic, virtual, work integrated learning (WIL), traditional study opportunities and more. All programs are supported by dedicated, experienced and highly trained staff.
As a team, we are continually looking for new programs to offer, new opportunities and new ways to do our core business better. We enjoy making things happen and mostly we enjoy seeing our participants experiencing the amazing highs, the freedom, the challenges and the life-changing perspectives that come from seeing the world through new eyes.
We are committed to providing the best value for study, intern and volunteer abroad programs. We strive for cultural immersion in all programs, and understand our reputation is built on delivering a quality academic experience that is exciting, unique and inspiring.
We value our team and our participants and we place great importance on:
- Commitment
- Integrity
- Community
- Innovation
- Knowledge
- Responsiveness
- Collaboration
We listen to you, we participate in our world, we work with energy and as a team. We believe that knowledge comes before understanding – at first you must know before you can understand. You must know that you want to see the world, know that there is so much more out there, know that you can be a part of it – then once you know you can begin to really understand, and this is where the magic happens.
