Virtual exchanges open doors to the world, allowing everyone to connect beyond their local community. As a sustainable and accessible way to build global awareness and essential skills, virtual exchange programs enhance college readiness, broaden career opportunities, and inspire community engagement.
The Experiment Digital’s programs bring high school students from around the world together through dynamic digital platforms, where they gain new thematic knowledge and engage with peers through videos, chats, workshops, interactive lessons, and games. Students will come away from their virtual exchange with:
- Leadership skills and practice
- Increased involvement in civic engagement and volunteerism
- Mutual understanding between youth from different countries
- Increased awareness of specific program themes such as STEAM, community service, and language learning
- Upon successful completion of any virtual exchange, students receive a $400 scholarship toward the cost of a study abroad program with The Experiment in International Living during the summer following their virtual exchange program.
