Outreach : Service-learners are provided opportunities to participate in ministry, mission, or service projects internationally in various countries and in diverse cultural and socio-economic contexts. They will be involved in various learning and teaching activities related to the particular project.
Education : This program emphasizes practical daily involvement with service, mission and ministry opportunities cross-culturally. Those participating meet for culture awareness training along with practical preparation for travel and living abroad during the time of the project. They also plan and implement teaching modules related to the project. Some of these international service opportunities may qualify for practicums based on meeting academic guidelines. Daily participation in the various projects is combined with debriefing times, discussion periods and evaluations.
