International Program Development Workshops

CAPA’s International Development workshops are a unique opportunity for campus officials to meet with CAPA program development specialists, and to inspect our facilities. Workshops focus on academic content, campus support, budgeting and marketing, health and safety, course-related travel, and experiential opportunities such as internships.

Participants will meet with CAPA’s on-site staff and participate in round-table discussions with representatives from other U.S. institutions.

Dear David, Holly, and Ilaria:

I am back to reality (work) this fine Monday, and wanted to send a
very appreciative thank you for your generosity, helpfulness, and all
around wonderfulness. The workshop was very informative, and my stay
in Paris both educational and a real pleasure. I especially was
impressed by your combination of professionalism and fun! I am very
excited about our planned program, and will be in touch soon with
more specifics (such as a syllabus!).

Thanks again, Eric
