Turning Initiatives into Reality

AIA offers both expertise and creativity to help educators plan, develop and manage unique and effective off-campus experiences. We provides a custom level of program development and support, from local assistance for faculty-lead program to fully turn-key solutions with locally provided instruction and support.

We help administrators to cultivate their own faculty, and we help faculty to propose programs and navigate the logistics of launching an abroad program. When you need help with both exceptional local teaching and program planning, our turn-key programs are the answer.

We assure that results fit your needs by starting with thorough consultation followed by a step-by-step, hands-on collaboration throughout the planning process. Whether we take the lead or follow your lead, AIA works to move initiatives through a timely planning process, towards effective implementation.

Program development typically includes:

• Preliminary planning & Research
• Curriculum development
• Faculty recruitment and preparation
• Budgeting & Scheduling
• Administrative planning
• Programs marketing, both on and off campus

Programs generally run from 4 weeks in summers to 16 week semesters and host 12-30 students, but duration, timing and cohort sizes are completely flexible. Models to fit your needs can include:
