Read What Past Travelers Tell Us

 

At The European Institute, we recognize the sacrifice a teacher makes helping to organize a successful trip for their students.

 

We feel that kind of effort and dedication should not go unrewarded. To thank you for your hard work we offer the following benefits to our group leaders:

 

Teachers Travel Free

You earn one free trip for yourself with the first six participants you enroll (only five if you are new to The European Institute!).

 

You then earn a second trip with a total of 12 paying participants enrolled (and another free trip for every 6 additional participants enrolled thereafter).

 

Overseas Conferences

As a way to say thank you for your dedication to your students in joining us to organize successful trips, we are pleased to offer you the opportunity to engage in some sightseeing and learning for yourself.

 

With as few as 15 paying participants you could quality for our free conference to London over Martin Luther weekend. The conference is also a fantastic means of getting to know us a better as well as exchange ideas with fellow group leaders. The best part though is that we plan everything for you, from flights to hotels – it’s all taken care of.

If for any reason you are unable to attend however, you may choose to defer your trip for a year or take the cash option instead.

Earn A Cash Stipend

In addition to traveling free, we also give you the most generous cash stipends in the industry. These stipends are calculated according to the number of people who travel with you and the cost of your trip.

They have the best hotels, best food and the best people to work with you could ever want."
