SE Edge

The SE Edge

Educational excursions go beyond just sightseeing. At SE we customize programs that amplify classroom learning and differentiate students for successful college endeavors and future careers.

Experiential Learning

Defined as “learning through reflection on doing,” our programs offer students the advantage of working hands-on on interactive activities that are proven to help retain their experiences. Our curriculums are tailor-made to enable optimal learning environments and outcomes. We focus on how these educational adventures positively impact each student, both academically and personally.

Cultural Immersion

SE strongly encourages students to become active participants in the cultures of their program destination. Studying and embracing their new surroundings ensures that students will be primed for global applications in their future careers. From sightseeing and working with our local guides and instructors to casual conversations with native street vendors, we fortify each trip with new and exciting cultural experiences.

Safety

In today’s globalized world, safety and security are at the forefront of all company decisions. SE does extensive research when determining program locations, design components, and content providers. Every trip is accompanied by a seasoned SE chaperone to ensure the safety and security of students at all times.
