I also appreciate the focus specifically on Education Abroad.” • “It is important to understand the standards for study abroad, which is a valuable contribution to the field.”
• Too Focused on Education Abroad/Not Relevant to My Work • “It might we worth having a separate group for
country directors. I feel that much of the information its aimed at an institutional level and not at the country provider level. For example, what are Best Practices for the administration of host families?” • “I would not recommend that faculty join, nor that staff working outside education abroad join.” • “great resource for those deeply involved in study abroad specifically. For the person who wears multiple hats with stronger emphasis in international student services, then I might recommend NAFSA first.”
